[Moon] Dubus Activity 2M G4DHF

[David Johnson]

Greetings Fellow EMEr's,

I was QRV for some time during both Activity Periods today. The wx has been deteriorating all day and I had to go QRT early during the 2nd Session as the wind speed increased. Up until then, I had difficulty in turning the array into the head wind and even more keeping it tracked on the Moon. My local power line noise was high until I had 5 degrees elevation, when I started to hear my own echoes. Conditions were highly variable with rapid QSB on most H-Pol only stations. Signals were very loud at times, including Peter's, SM2CEW who was the loudest I had ever heard him at 549 in the afternoon session. Most of the "usual gang" were worked. It was a great pleasure, as always.
