I didn't have time to go to St.Zephirine last weekend. Anyway I'd like to support the contest. So I tried to work in the contest operating my shack in St.Zephirine remotely. My shack has a good ADSL 6 Mbps Internet connection. I was running N1MM over TeamViewer remote desktop and Kenwood ARVP VOIP application. There was some latency but I could manage it. Another one disadvantage I couldn't use my PA's since they are not ready for remote operation. So I could use the only TS-590S output of about 100 watts. Not bad for 100 watts to get few G,GM,GW, DK, OK,OM,CT,PJ2,KP4,TI,XE called me. Unfortunately I missed prime time of the contest because we went for visiting our friends both evenings. I found that remote operation quite interesting compare to working from home by using inefficient antenna in a very noisy environment.
