Lots of problems encountered when powering the station. Not everyting can be told but we had a power
failure and some problems with a broken computer. Besides that we had a lot of trouble with RFI. But everything solved so far. We use a 6KW petrol power generator now. Since propagation is not that good we decided to connect the amplifier and we will change our section to high power now. Not that I am personally impressed with what can be worked with 400W. The wire antenna we use for the low bands is not working well unfortenately. Only a few multipliers worked so far on those bands. We have a vertical for 15m and 10m that's doing a better job. We also had a visit from a local commercial radio station in the morning so we could promote our hobby here in our province, of course it did cost some time but it is a important aspect for this hobby as well.
