Hi,

I will try be qrv on 1296 MHz most of my moon time in the weekend. I was  
mostly QRT in the first part of the contest due to a failure in the PA  
( shorted feedthru capacitor ). It was no way to fix it "remotely" during  
contest time. But now it is finally fixed and seem to work fine again.
I will also spend some time operating in JT65C mode around 1296.070.

My setup:

4.5m solid dish, automatic tracking,
VE4MA feed,
250-500W SSPA mounted close to the feed,
0.37dB NF preamp,

All remote controlled via internet.

73!
