Last 2 meter contest we had some problems with the audio from the 144mhz pc. We could play our wav files after a while but the sound cards did not allow to record the contest with the ne separate program (qsorder) for N1mm. I put an other extra sound card (tks PA1M) in and now it is working fine.

I had a few trees who where going to be dead, (an expert told me) and one which blocked the 2 meter array in northern direction taken down by Nap PA1NG and a friend of Nap. Two wweks ago the did the first one but it was to windy then to do the other two.
Nap takes the wood home for his wood stove.

In the Netherlands we may not burn on the ground. In a oil can is ok.
