post mortem of WIA Winter VHF UHF SHF Field Day Contest 2019

I forgot to do a write up, or I started but never completed, anyway, I did actually enter the contest, I operated from QF46pu, others who were there or nearby (QF46qu) were VK2CU, VK2DAG, VK2ZIW, VK2ZRH and VK2JDS.
I operated 24hrs segment. Bands used were 6m, 2m, 70cm, 23cm, 9cm, 3cm,  24Ghz, 76Ghz, not sure if we did 122GHz in the contest itself,  but we did spend a fair bit of time experimenting with 122Ghz on that weekend across the 3.8km void between hilltops.  Also did  some 4WDing around the two farms and taste testing some red wines at night following the roast pork cooked in a wood stove.
Overall, it was more of a microwave tuneup get together, than a serious go at contesting.
