DL2RMC and DL1RTL was activ with callsigns OY/homecall from OY - Faroe Island between august 30 and september 9, 2004.
We was on the air on 160m - 10m, in CW, SSB
and also RTTY, SSTV and PSK. On 6m we was only portable on two days, because
no good place for the antenna, and of course, the conds for 6m are bad at
this time. Also 10m was closed all the time.
We used 2 stations, IC706 and FT840. For 160/80/40/20/15m with power amplifier
about 600 Watt, and for the WARC an amplifier with 300 Watt. Please read
the news-page also.
