My 2M summary
Last update 13-Jul-2008
I started on 2M back in 1996. LA7EJA and I wanted to try the NAC contest. We had a 9 element yagi and 100w. At that first test we worked OH, SM, OZ and LA. This was amazing for us, cause we were only used to a few tens of km's. This got me hooked on 2m, but it wasn't until october 1997 I got my own rig, the Kenwood TR-751e. I put up a 9 element yagi and started working aurora.  I've also tried some meteor-scatter as well. In 2000 I worked my first sporadic-e opening. I worked 31 QSO'es with 25w and a Diamond X-300 vertical, cause the yagies were down. In 2005 I moved to a new qth where I hopefully will get a permanent setup with some nice antennas. In the meanwhile I've been running a temporary setup with 2 x 9element yagies and 170w.

Here you'll find a small summary about my 2M activities and what I have worked.
