Today I received a beautiful Award of the YO DX HF contest.Last year I partcipated while on holiday on the beautiful island of Saõ Miguel on the Azores.
During the contest I used an end fed wire on the roof of the hotel.
In the contest I used my FT-817 with 2.5 watts or less and a homemade light weight keyer.
The envelop from Romenia arrived in the rain.
When my wife entered the room with the wet envelop, she said:
"I hope all is OK".
I immediately recognized the envelop of the YO DX contest.
Despite the rain the Award is in good condition, because it is plasticized.
My thank goes to Ovidiu YO2DFA, the contest manager of the
YO DX HF contest.

Hello Mike, it's so much fun to take the portable station on holiday in the hotel, but you always must wait to see how to hang the antenna. It's fun to experience what the antenna does. It's great to receive an Award, but it also depends on the other participants from the same country. hi. The YO DX HF is a very nice contest. 73, Bert
