At location there is already built stack of 5over5 yagies and planty of field area around. We decided to build another 7el. 15m boom yagi but because of very cold weather whole week before the contest we had to work on the antenna project on Friday before the start. At -18degC we didn't manage to put the antenna strait and instead of it we put 4el.loop which was on the tower in 20min after several hours of freezing with first project! We rebuilt whole station in 2hours since kids in the primary school starts 7hours after official end with their lessons. Contest started well and also the propagation was not bad. Aurora didn't hit us like it did for CQWW (both parts). We managed to work even United States of America several times... RIG: FT1000mp, IC775DSP + RedifonII 1500W + 5over5 at 13/20m, 4el. delta loop at 12m Our final result is as shown in the table. Best regards and hope to see you all again. 73, Goran ANDRIC, S55OO.com p.s. for more info about the location and operators check http://www.s52z.com/ and http://www.qsl.net/s50c
