YJ0CCC operation has taken place 30 Oct 2009 – 5 Nov 2009. The main focus was to give a ‘new-one’ on 160m and 80m bands, CW. Also operated on the new 5Mhz band.

TX antenna on 160m was Inv L with 44 elevated radials. For 80m operation horizontal section of the Inv L was remotely switched out to form a 1/4-wave vertical. On other bands remotely controlled ATU was used to tune 80m vertical to desired freq. PWR used was 100w.

Despite of rather episodic operation on 160m the following countries worked:   

W1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,0, KL7, JA, VE, KH2, UA2, UA1,3,4,6,9,0, R1JFM, VK, ZL, BU, KH7, S5, YL, LY, UR, I, OH, OM, OK, OE, SV, OZ, EY8, HL, SP, DL, SM, GM, PA, E74, 9A, YT, ON, DU.

While pile ups on 160m maintained 30-60 QSO/hr count, 80m was busier with 110-130 QSO/hr speed.

Thank you very much for your patience and dedication in copying weak YJ0CCC signals. QSL via VK2CCC.
