EU HF Contest 2008 - results

I came across EU HF Contest 2008 results during my browsing on internet. I have been surpriced by very fast contest evaluation. My congratulations to contest commitee.

Brief commentary on my result. I haven´t achieved TOP 10 in MIX LP category again.
Small comfort for me is the move forward for 1 position to 12th place in MIX LP category in comparison with last year. I can achieve TOP 10 by this progress in 2 years. :-)

Nice result has been achieved by Peter OL6P in CW LP category - 5th place.

Other nice results of Czech stations in this unofficial European Championship:
OL8M - 5th place in CW HP
OL3Z - 6th place in CW LP

In national competition the Czech republic moved forward to 8th place. It´s a pity that lower amount of Czech stations participated in this contest. For instance I have been only one station in MIX LP from OK!

SO2R station - installation of Master units

I have decided to improve my SO2R station after the WW DX contest. I have focused to automatic switching of antennas and BPFs. This feature is provided by 2 pieces of Master Station units from Microham.

I have to say that the options of this unit are really wide. You can:
- configure RX/TX antennas for each band
- configure virtual rotator for 4 square
- control SteppIR
- many other features that you can find on Microham web pages

It is really significant improvement of my SO2R station.

I only have to exploit it during the contest! :-)
