00:00 - 00:03 | The station's all set up. SteppIR is 1:1 on all bands. |
00:04 - 00:05 | RBN in Europe gives us +38dB. |
00:05 - 00:07 | Only VK it could hear. |
00:08 - 00:12 | Solar flux is up. |
00:12 - 00:15 | And there's been no flares. |
00:17 - 00:19 | We're all set up. We will win |
00:19 - 00:21 | the multi-multi open section. |
00:24 - 00:26 | Sadly your neighbour has just got |
00:27 - 00:28 | a new solar power |
00:31 - 00:33 | inverter system. S9+ noise all bands. |
00:34 - 00:36 | Can't hear anything now. |
00:53 - 00:58 | Anyone not on the DXCC Honour Roll please leave. |
01:13 - 01:15 | Why did you not tell me earlier? |
01:15 - 01:17 | I've been planning this for months! |
01:18 - 01:23 | Even paid for last year's winner to go on a skindiving holiday. |
01:25 - 01:28 | And bribed the rival teams to stay off air |
01:29 - 01:31 | I live my life for contests |
01:31 - 01:34 | I bought this house so I could work DX |
01:34 - 01:37 | I lobbied Newington to accept the country I just worked |
01:37 - 01:40 | I am just two off the world No 1. |
01:40 - 01:42 | You could operate portable? |
01:42 - 01:46 | Stuff portable for a joke. I need my amp! |
01:46 - 01:48 | Or operate from the club? |
01:48 - 01:52 | They only have a stupid FT840! |
01:53 - 01:54 | I bought my IC7851 specially |
01:56 - 01:57 | for this weekend. |
01:57 - 02:00 | I knew I was going to win. |
02:00 - 02:03 | The old duffers at the club can't even fix the rotator. |
02:04 - 02:08 | Their rusty TH3JR's stuck south. |
02:08 - 02:13 | Do they think I want to talk to penguins? |
02:14 - 02:16 | I need long path. I need short path. I need the world! |
02:17 - 02:21 | What do they do with my licence fees? |
02:27 - 02:29 | Why did they not stop these inverters? |
02:30 - 02:34 | I knew we should have stuck with brown coal! |
02:34 - 02:36 | I was doing so well. |
02:41 - 02:42 | I was leaping up the list. |
02:43 - 02:47 | I was due to speak at Dayton. |
02:48 - 02:53 | I would tell them all how it's done. |
02:54 - 02:56 | No one else has done it just like me. |
02:56 - 02:59 | North Korea were going to let me use their jammer antennas |
03:00 - 03:02 | To win next year's IARU DX contest. |
03:04 - 03:07 | It's OK we can do Echolink in the ALARA. |
03:14 - 03:16 | My DX dreams are shattered. |
03:19 - 03:23 | It's no good if you can't hear anyone. |
03:25 - 03:26 | My gear will go. |
03:31 - 03:33 | Pack it up for the monks at Mount Athos. |
03:40 - 03:46 | I'll see my family for the first time in yonks. |
03:46 - 03:49 | And take up portable QRP. |
03:53 - 03:56 | Maybe visit Greece next winter. |
