2016 ARRL International EME Contest

12/12/2016 | VE4MA

 Had a lot of fun on 432...just like the old days in the 80s. I was using a small 3 m dish and 400W on CW and JT.  I changed to a more optimum feed PY2BS/ W5LUA dual polarity Patch feed for the second weekend. The Big signals were greater than 20 dB/ N on the SDR radio. I had a lot of trouble with spurs ( later found it was from my digital encoders on my other dish)'

As per usual I did not pick the right band on the microwave weekend ( 5 & 10 G) and all the activity was on 2.3 ( I should have known :-()  At least VE was represented on those bands
