CU2/IZ2LSC pics

Here there are some pics of my last ham activity as CU2/IZ2LSC from Azores, Sao Miguel Island.
Many thanks to Luis who permitted me to install the antenna and, as usual, to my wife Sara that supported me during our vacation.

I2RFJ video

Yesterday I went to I2RFJ Ivano’s house to test the end-fed Zeppeling antenna that I will bring with me to Azores. All the tests are fine, so the antenna is ready to go. I also recorded a video clip about his station and his wonderful antenna system. (Optibeam OB 11-5 for 12/12/15/17/20 installed in May 2008).
In the video you can see him working CW (morse code), please note how is easy for him to manipulate the key at high speed.
Ivano is a licensed ham since 1974 (when I was born!!!) so he has a great experience in ham communication. He is a friend and also a nice teacher for me.
Enjoy the video.
