EQP in EU

Benny Aumala
Complete flop.
Being monobander with 20m 3ele only I tried to
reach any K2 on CW. Nobody!
Then with a kilowatt trying all directions. No answer!

I know, no kW. But even for one contact. Nobody.
Two stations were calling QRP test and Beru, but EQP was rejected.

What a dissappointment indeed.

Benny:

I am sorry that you made no QSOs in EQP. Everyone was disappointed by
the monumentally poor propagation conditions. I did work several
European stations in EQP, but none in northern Europe. We were out
there, but it looks the band simply did not open to Finland.

Better luck in the future,

73,
