After we had swapped the 2m for the 70cm antennas this morning we tested the SWR, as usual. It was 1:2, on both yagis combined as well as on each single yagi: very very strange. We carefully checked all cableing in the transformer boxes as well as elements and spacing. There was no obvious mistake. And the antenna had performed well with CR2EME 2018 and D44TU 2017. Since then it was just being stored in DH7FB's cellar. So we did not know what else we could do.
Therefore with a heavy heart we decided to swap back and be QRV on 2m again today. We feel very sorry for those needing EA9 as new DXCC after Zdenek OK1DFC successfully activated this DXCC in 2017, particularly Peter PA2V and of course Zdenek himself.
So cu at our moon rise on 144,114 MHz EF9LZ tx 1st, around 1630Z today.
