COMMENT:
Due to QRL on Saturday and a new "family computer" I was active on Sunday
for nearly 13h. First I planned to hand out a few points - turned out I was
hooked again by the CQWW-phenomenon!
I couldn`t resist and began on 40m at about 8:00 utc running north and
central America for an hour - signals were fine (OE-SR=6:25utc!!). Then
I jumped to 10m and ran Asia, decreasing QRG to catch Asia on 15 and
later 20m, jumped back to 10 and prepared to run USA. I was surprised by
the masses who called me on 10m long time after sunset in OE! W6 and 7
had very bad flutter, I saw someone asking for Aurora on the cluster... We
might have had some solar activity :-(
I did run 10m dry and went for 15m. Enjoyed the run there and then I had
to pass points to my BCC colleagues at CN8WW - QSYed 80m and immediately
to 160m. They had good ears and their signal was a pleasure. Having no Q`s
on Topband I started running - until OE5KE called me and told me A61AJ
would be on 160. We had a small ragchew and after I started to run again
A61AO was calling me :-) Wow - Jamal must have heard us chatting about A61AJ
(also we were using German) and then he supplied the needed multiplier
himself :-) THANKS.
After a while I went for a run on 80m which produced some other mults -
wwwonly problem was that I was "a bit" too late for 20m, the band was
closing,
couldn`t establish a run there to NA (probably everyone was aiming antennas
south or to Asia, hi). Finally I approached 40m and made some more 100 QSO.
After dinner and some (none-technical) unexpected breaks during the day I
decided at 21:00 utc to get myself "2m-horizontal polarised" (I went to
bed) :-)
Thanks for all who called me and made my day!
Vy 73 es cu in the next contest,
de Oliver...
PS: Well, I have one thing to add:
PLEASE, listen listen and then listen
again - as every year I saw some OE5OsO spots *ARRGH*
1st (fortunately) there is _NO_ oe5oSo. so you really can delete oe5oso from
your MASTER.DAT files!
2nd did you know that MASTER.DAT - yes, the callsigndatabase you (might) use
-
does contain mistakes? why? because a couple of logs are merged together
and _all_ mistakes of these logs are in there!!
3rd all things like "sending the H at lower speed" etc. don`t work - there
are enough people out there who still copy "S" and a few complaining
about the stuttering CW, hi...
So once more - if you feel like you heard "S" - listen listen and then
listen
again and if you`re still not sure _ask me_ ! I will send you my call QRS,
no
problem...
THANKS to KC1XX and others who spotted my call _correct_ after they realized
someone´s made a mistake!
