IW0UEI
expedition to JN30XN, October 2004
Because there was
still demand for JN30 I decided to go back one last time this year before the
boat has to come out of the water.
The plans were to go
3 mornings but on October 7 the waves were too high for operation. Very long and deep waves would have made
operating almost impossible. Also
October 9 was not possiblle because of family matters.
This left October 8
for operation and it was very succesful.
The sea was excellent and the temperature was around 30 degrees. 5 FSK441 and 2 JT65 QSO’s were completed
during about 4 hours of activity.
