** Personal Skegness 'First' by the respective mode
The 9.2 is really doing the business, but I really ought to lower it
slightly as it is swaying quite noticeably, even in the gentle breeze. I
won't lower it too much, but it looks quite imposing up there on the
roof at almost three metres above the rooftop. It is actually quite easy
to raise and lower it as necessary.
The two NRW firsts were a pleasant surprise, as was Pfaffenberg. I was
almost certain I could hear the latter on scatter when I had just moved
in to the last QTH, i.e. before all the noise started. I guess it must
have been Pfaffenberg all along. There are other bits and pieces across
the band too which I hope to identify here at the new QTH. It's a relief
to have the 9.2 installed before the Es season, but I still haven't had
time to install the rotator cables, so the antenna remains fixed to the
ESE for another day. This job is at the top of my To Do list for
tomorrow.
Good DX!
