Comments:
I went to Sousse on Friday aftrenoon after 2 hour
driving from Sfax. I had a short tour around and a coffee in touristic El
Kantaoui Port, then I went to the club to start preparations.
My idea was to make an audio recording of the whole
contest from a remote SDR located in NL. This will allow checking
propagation on the other side and see how can I "optimize" the pileups in
the future operations.
Recording the streaming audio from the Java application required having a
special software. I found a great one called SoundTap and I was testing it
during the week before and worked perfectly.
However, audio streaming in the club was always interrupted after a couple
of minutes. Then I realize that internet connection is not stable. Nothing
to do with that, I forgot about the idea!
Radio propagation was bad and I was surprised getting
"unusual" signal levels from Europe. A quick look at
http://dx.qsl.net/propagation/ Website showed a G2 Level Geomagnetic Storm
and an R1 Radio blackout. Now it's clear!
I made some good runs on 20m. 15m was open for about 2 hours or so during
the day. I made quick QSYs to 10m to check any sudden opening; it was the
desert there!
Due to hot weather and some commitments, I could only
make 21 operating hours out of 36.
Thank you all for the QSOs!
