I choose to enter the low power 100W max. contest section.
K3 i-L 25m vertical and rx Beverages E/W
Since in our ADSL2+ network a "notch" is set by the KPN network provider,what a relieve! finally.
TX-ing 1.8MHz is without interfering our network TV. Did you know that ADSL2+ is using 1-2 MHz base band ? The KPN helpdesk man and woman do not know this. Friendly people but they are schooled in "communication" that's how they call it in the University and schools it has nothing to do with technical communication but it is a sort of training to build a pleasant buffer between the public and authorities in general, many good job's to get in this field ! Thanks to a real KPN technician the ADSL2+ carriers within 1.8 - 2.0 are switched off, called a notch. This is the only way to get rit of 1.8MHz RFI in the network all other methodes failed.
My result at Sunday morning band close
630Q ZF5T XE2X 2-way great receiving !
75 multi's 17 states
Poor propagation overall , some "strong" W early night, E2X JH4UYB heard well, but i had chosen for low power section being in underdog position in the piles and depending on good receiving of the competitors.
And most time i was S&P in a very crowded band , later i moved to the higher part of the band at about 1856 to 1875 our band limit is 1810-1880 , 1850 is a LSB phone frequency and some typical hams persistently want to have phone chats in the middle of this major 160 CW contest, no other frequencies available it seems... If you start by mistake a CQ near this frequency with no one using it you are corrected by the band police..
of coarse they are in their right but stupid it is.
and a part of the i-L 160m
DX Highlights: ZP5X XE2X E2X VR2XAN despite the blind tale callers over pending QSO's
Hard to believe but E2X heard my low power in a peak of signal and rare break of constant callers.
