[WT-support] Problems observed at LZ9W M/M with Win-Test

[wally]

Hi Mario,

Thanks for additional comments.

Most probably constantly running AV program on all PCs has caused the
problems we observed. We'll make simulation test and we'll see. Also there
are ARRL contests,too to try to solve the problem in real situation before
WPX SSB 2009. 
Making USA QSOs on 15 m and 20m bands (closing too early here ) will be
difficult,but we'll try to compensate with more USA contacts on 80m :-). Our
new phased MIRTAs ( collinear dipoles in phase towards USA ) seem to be
performing quite well on 80m. Chance to work US below 3775 is giving new
possibilities, too.

Best of Season Greetings to DF0HQ gang there.

73 , Wally LZ2CJ
