ZD7CA - St Helena Isl.


ZD7CA Update (Dec 26)


We enjoyed a wonderful Christmas Eve down on Sandy Bay beach camping out. Christmas morning was made even more special with an amazing JA pileup! If only all pileups could me so politely conducted .


Small problem with the vertical but im about to go use the shack & workshop of Derek ZD7CTO to work out a fix.


The vertical is a 3d printed fan dipole like the dxcommander (but better hihi)

A huge thanks to Derek ZD7CTO and the gardner who help me put the Buddihex up this morning!


We now have 6-20m on the Hexbeam and will be using the AH-730 tuner for 60 & 80m.


Already had a great evening yesterday on 60m.
