#cqww ssb 2018 again with PA6AA

Last year we did the contest with a nice group of amateurradio friends. It was fun and we obtained 3rd place in the Netherlands with almost 3000 valid QSOs. Of course we did it for fun but experienced a little competition with other stations as well. We decided to do it again and of course we will try to do better as last year. Autumn of course is well known of large wind and storm and we experienced the strength of nature last year. This time the forecast is a lot better and we don't expect any difficulties with bad weather.


We discussed antennas and setup already just after the contest and made plans the whole year
through. We did improve our antennas and hope everything is working like expected. Only time will tell. At least the scaffold will be up again supporting a 15m beam and my old mast will be supporting a 10m beam. I can't tell much about the rest of the setup as that will be a surprise for the competing stations in the MOTT section.

Well, I hope to work some of you readers. At least if you are participating or not try to work PA6AAin the contest.
