Remarks: Hi all, I tryed to do some QRP work in these contest again. That
was a really great contest! Indeed I don't have a good score or so, but I
actually worked 4 new DXCC-Countries and some new bandpoints. With QRP it's
hard to get mults, pile ups were strong and I was weak. If I was a bit
stronger could work ID, NV, MT, but they didnt copy me.
Theband was full of UA's and UR's, but suddenly I heard a loud JT, and I was
lucky! I got him on the first call. After working some other EU / AS
multipliers and WP2, the band suddenly was open to W/VE. It was a great
experience to see the signals growing better. At first there was VO1MP, but
no ther NA, then W1 came through. At about 12:15 UTC I could hear and work
all the eastcoast with really big signals. I had no problems to get through
anyway, and I worked until 17 UTC, when the condx went down. I worked many
W5/9/0 in the late afternoon.
One big problem is my QTH in central EU: I couldn't work any EU,the other
EU-
Countries are simply to close to me. At all I must say: CONDX were
splendid, it was a great fun and I'll be back next year!
