MARKET REEF on 4 bands during SARTG RTTY contest

During last week I tried more times to get contact with OJ0B expedition acting on rare island Market Reef. But with my low power station I could not break EU station pile-ups. During SARTG RTTY contest I worked other expedition station OJ0MI not only on one band but on 4 bands during 8-hour contest run.

Nice story and pictures about Market Reef expedition 2007 you can find on SM0W page.

In 4-band worked group here were G0BRC, OH0BP(Aland Islands), YL2TB also. Northern direction (from my viewpoint) was most successful. Between interesting worked stations werer PY2NY (Brazil), OY3JE (Faeroe Islands), TF3KX (Iceland), ZM2A (New Zealand), DU1IVT (Philippines), 9M2MT (Singapore), E21YDP (Thailand). Sweden has some special events stations on the bands - 8S20OTC, SD40JZ. All these results were achieved on Saturday 18th of Aug. But sunday's run was very difficult and frustrating. Poor conditions and high-power EU station blocked me from getting more contacts in pleasant way.
