This weekend was the Marconi Memorial CW Contest on 144 MHz. I wanted to take the chance to work some stations in CW on 2m this morning. I was one hour qrv during a walk over NS-108 Piesberg. It was my first participation in this contest since I am licensed (1978). I heard a lot of stations but mostly with low signals. In spite of my qrp station ( 5 wtts / HB9CV) I worked new ODX from DM/NS-108:
- TM0W in JN36BP 645km
- OK2M in JN69UN 501km
- OK1DC in JN69JJ 465km
I heard some stations far far away like OM7W (885 km), but no chance to work them (today).
