Tropo propagation predictions showed fairly good conditions to the Spanish mainland and so EA3CBH and me (EA6VQ) decided to be active for some hours on sunday morning for the contest. The result were a bunch of nice QSO across EA land and a few French stations also (look at the bottom of this page). Rig used was a TS-790 plus 160w on 2m and MGF-1302 preamp. The antenna was an M2, 12 elem. (3,5 wl).
