Thanks to everyone who participated and especially to the folks in Europe who got out of bed early to activate in poor weather or in snow. Look out for the next VK ZL JA - EU S2S extravaganza in October 2018. News on that event to follow after consultation with Mike and Ed. Finding a weekend without a conflicting contests is always fun.
Two photos:
In case you are wondering - Mt Mundoonen summit is host to a former aviation LF non-direction beacon and commercial and emergency services repeaters. The comms infrastructure buildings are fenced off, no access.
All EU contacts were made on the taller of the two Inverted V antennas. The 10m pole Inverted V is broadside east-west for long path propagation.
23cm set up. The signal path to Canberra is 54 km.
