Re: CQ Worldwide DX Contest. starts tonight
|
Another CQ WPX contest update. Conditions last night were great; I ended the night at 0130 with 52 QSOs on literally every band (10, 15, 20, 40, 80, and even 160!), and a lot of DX: Morocco, Brazil, Curacao, Bonaire, Cape Verde (off the western coast of Africa), Columbia, Mexico, Belize, and even a 59 from Japan! It was a ton of fun. I even got my technician buddy who lives in Melbourne FL to try it out, and this morning he had a contest QSO with Slovenia on 10 meters. He's really excited to upgrade his ticket now that he's had a taste of what he can do on HF.?
If you have given the contest a try, it's not too late--it runs today until 1800 MDT. -- --------------------- Mark Ehr | K0EHR VP, 285 Tech Connect Radio Club Littleton, Colorado k0ehr@... Check out my ham radio blog: |
