Main purpose for this contest was : FUN ! and a good opportunity to improve pile-up skills. Unfortunately the 40m yagi was too near to the 15m, which probably raised both radiation patterns making them far less effective then they're supposed to be. Ended up listening 40m almost only on the beverage.
Luckily we compensated that with great openings on 10m, summing up 1600 qsos just on that band :-)
We now know what to improve next year, we'll then start being really competitive. -- HB9CAT
