Hex destroyed yet again.

Yesterday morning flock of sulfur-crest cockatoos descended on the Hex and in about seven minutes destroyed the whole antenna.

My SPE 1K has new relays.

After several millions of on/of action the current set got tired and sometimes missed a beat (known problem with these amps).   After planning the job for several weeks I was able to do it today.  Hard work it is too.

The hardest and the most time consuming was desoldering the pins with only simple "sucker".  Managed to do it after all.


Hope all be fine for the Oceania CW test.

Next weekend is the CW section... will take it much more seriously.

Good news was that on forty meters I worked quite a few Foundation license holders.  good on you "F" calls.

The results of the Commonwealth contest were published.

  As I member of the team Australia 2, I was quite pleased with the result.
