The last antennas was repaired in the Ericsson Tower today. 5 element for 15 meters @26m. The tower now have 3 element 40m in the top, 4/4 element for 20 meters (19/37m) and 5 el @26m. The indication for the top rotator was also installed.
Unfortunately the new tower light was broken yesterday.
Also, we have started to build the operation positions. Got lots of help from Johan SA3BIB and Anders SM3XIK. First operator SM5AJV/SE5E arrived in the evening!
When to plan vacation in Sweden? July is a good choice, but last week of November is also a must. Preparations for CQWW CW!
This weekend we lifted the upper 4 element 20m yagi in the USA Stack. We also connected the power to the rotator for the 40 m yagi and power to the tower light.
On Sunday night in the rain and darkness I connected the new 80m phase box. It seams to be working fine, but still have to test with high power.
Plenty of work still to do on the list before the contest. I expect the hired guns to show up on Friday, 15 minutes before the contest, and open their boxes with the golden Benchers…
