    Hello All,

    Just last day of our activity from AS-157 has started. Up to now, there are 8900 QSOs from Hon Tam Island in our log. But pile-ups are still veeeery huge! :) We’ve never thought, that Vietnam might be so rare DXCC! :)
    Yesterday night, we tried to appear on 160m. Unfortunately the band was veeeery noisy this night (also the same on 80m!), we tried to install the short beverage (~150m) directed to EU, BUT the Hotels’ lighting give just the pure “white” noise on any RX antennas we tried to use! :( No ways to switch it off… :(
    So, we will try to RX on the TX Vertical this night also. Congratulations to Top Banders, who worked us on 160m!
    Up to now, we’ve had the following antennas: separate 3 VDAs on 15/17/20 m, BiggIR for 10/12/30/40 m and Vertical for 80/160 m.
    VDAs will be disassembled in the evening, when these bands become dead.
    The Log search is updated!

    Looking for you on the bands!
