3V3A Tunisian Football Part 3


3rd part
Tunisian football – after match penalty series

Thank you for your reading my article again. This part will be short :)

I do not want to divide my contest travel into the highlights and Lowlights.
For me the whole contest was the real magic and I'll remember it whole with its pluses(+) and minuses (-). It was a real adventure !

Glad to claim up 3rd result after HI3A and V26K.

After all passed time I have a lot of ideas to do better and change next time.


Some of my comments after the contest was over

 better band changing tactics and propagation details
 to sleep BEFORE the contest
 finish all the preparation details. Do it at MAXIMUM level.
 Training with a pileups. I had no 200+ hours. Only 198
 TS450 was a good one but not the best
 need 2nd radio even just to RX other band conditions
 What is the best tactic to make a max multiplier on that setup, 1 TRCVR and 100w
 Improve antennas!

Monday

Some QSOs on 20, 15 and 12. Had a QSO with my Dad RK9CR and send my greetings to my family. Ashraf came to the dinner and I asked him to go to the sea to swim.

Oh its too cold I'm the only one on the beach who trying to swim :)

At the evening we had a small party with the Scouts. And I was honored to be one of the scouts! Thank you for your hospitality and the help!


Airport. Tunisia is meeting and leaving me with a football. I can see TV translation of the Real vs Barcelona famous 5-0 match ! Football is Great !
