CT9L ready to go
There are now 3 separate cables running from the house wiring input into the shack, carrying 3 phases of the mains. That is enough to stop the lights from flickering all the time. The crew built an extra vertical fro 10 meters. We don't know if it will be necessary, as Luis, CT3EE told us that 10 meters is dead in CT3. Further south they seem to have a better path into USA, we can hear some stations from EA8 and 3X5 running on 10, and we cannot hear the other end of the pileup. Maybe the contest will bring some propagation? We will know monday morning.At least the sun is shining at the moment!
During the contest I will be on 15 meters running 6 hour shifts together with DL3HAH.
CT9L is ready for it.

Hi Rein,
I noticed that CT9L was using EXPERT HPA's, the same I used [DK4A, SOAB] in the CQWWCW.
Am just curious how hot you ran them.
What was the temperature on the display ?
cheers,
Ron

Sound like fun or a kid in a candy store sort of for the adult. I wish I could play around with setting that up.
