FYBO 2007 RESULTS

Here is the FYBO log from NQ7RP. Pictures of the NQ7RP site follow the log. There is a very good early collection of FYBO pictures at the Northern Vermont QRP Society. Results and complete soapbox will be posted sometime after March 1, 2007.

FYBO Photos

I believe the following picture from the NM QRP group just about says it all about FYBO! This is where that big 40m signal from KK6MC/6 came from. Dr. Megacycle himself is operating the K1.

Now to a much warmer place… Arizona! This is the 20m/15m operating position at NQ7RP.

Station with operator Mike, K7DD. Can you believe the day started off at 39F and ended up at 70F.

The antenna here is a full size 20m ground plane constructed from 4 - 16’ fiberglass poles and a Jackite 31’ pole. Mike’s paint can filters worked very well and kept interaction between the stations to nothing.

This is the 40m station. Heard lots of loud stations, but very few contacts. The 40m half-square antenna did not play as expected. This will require another trip to the park with the antenna analyzer for a post mortem and tune-up!
