I was operating SAC this weekend from LA8W. We were 3 operators this time, LB1GB, LB8IB and me (LA8AJA). Summary can be seen here.
Conditions were not good, and we’re all waiting for propagation to improve. I did manage to work 3B7C on 15/20/40 while at LA8W.
Check out the video from me working 3B7C on 20M and also a small video from SAC. Thanks to LB1GB for the video.
Worked a few qsoes in the perseids. This resulted in a few new squares and one new dxcc. I worked France for the first time on 2m. I also made my first 2m eme qso from home. KB8RQ were spotted and had a nice signal here. Take a look here to see his big antenna. It consists of 24×13 elements. I was using only 2x9el and 170watts.
6M is not much to talk about. Band during late summer hasn’t been in a very good shape. The only thing worth mentioning, is that J79PAK was heard by me and several other LA’s. As far as I know, no LA’s managed to work him.
6M has been quite good the last few weeks. I’ve managed to work 4 new ones, and several new squares. Some of the highlights worked: K1TOL, C52T (new), V44KAI (new), J8/W6JKV (new), ZB2OE (new), NP4A. Have heard HI3TEJ, FY7THF/B, 9Y4AT/B, VE8BY/B
VHF meeting was fun. Met a lof of old friends. Lecture went well, and a new powerpoint presentation was made. Download here.

Activity is quite low these days. Too much other stuff to do. Been listening a little bit on 6M, but nothing worked. Seems like the band hasn’t quite opened up yet. Besides that, I have held 2 lectures about last years OJ0LA trip, and will hold another the coming weekend at the Scandinavian VUSHF2007 meeting. More info found here.
