Come and join me as we talk with Holger ZL3IO / ZM4T about the antennas he uses for Contesting. The views are magnificent and the RF takeoff is superb at the prime location.
Now I understand why when propagation is open to ZL and Holger is on I have zero problem hearing him. What a great location for a first class station. Thanks Roly for these great videos. Keep it up. 73 Joe
I can not believe these antennas stay up with the wind reported. Looks like stand alone towers without guy wires. Obviously this IS the competition for worldwide contests. Reminds me of KX6 times. Cheers. W1TIM
Another great show !!!. I only worked NZ once with an Australian at the same time, but it was during my CB days and on a NZ frequency during an afternoon grayline. I love the shows of real people acknowledging all their efforts to do our hobby. These folks have forgotten more than this old man will ever know, but it is great to see how it is done right !!! Thank you very much !!!
Holger's HAM radio setup gives new meaning to the work "Shack". I have a shack, Holger has a palace.
Purpose built Martin with contesting firmly in mind......cheers
