What happened today:

· Contest Resumée

When DL9NEI asked for a short statement about the contest, he got the following answer: "Well, when the contest started, we began working everyone around and we stopped when the contest was over". Thank you, guys. What a nice statement...

 
left: "Our Boss" Ben, DL6FBL, still looking sceptical...; right: the team listening to the 3830 reports (that was before PJ4B reported that they had "only" 63M *smile*).

What happened during the contest:
·
Only one power failure for only 4 secs, then the generator came up. Switching back was hardly noticeable.
· One 80m-vertical had enough Sunday morning and decided to come down...
· Building antennas for over one week in kind of changeable weather, the contest weekend was great: sun, no clouds, some 25°C...

Famous words:
· "Can I have a BCC-T-shirt without belly" said someone when the group-photo was taken.
· "There are strange people in the forest" said the concierge when DL9NEI asked if he could walk downtown.(we do more believe that the stranger people were sitting on the hill and in the hotel...)
