I received several direct messages about another post-contest logger, but I have successfully captured the log using Fast Log Entry in contest mode, it has keyboard shortcuts for ciphers and reports default to 599, so within a half hour or so my log was finished and the Cabrillo output ready for tidying up, with power level etc.
So with help from Allan VK2GR the file is being checked before upload.
Thanks to all for the contacts. I was operating out of my car on Red Hill in Canberra’s south, about 3 km south of Parliament House. Rig was IC706, antenna a dipole I made for SOTA use, supported on a 7m pole at the feedpoint.
I thought the afternoon/evening conditions on 40m were pretty darn good, I don’t recall working into G at that signal level ever before. Benefits of the sunspot low!
Plans for a better station next time. This was cobbled together hastily when an opportunity became available, I was nearly out of action all weekend due to illness in the family, but that was resolved on Friday.
