COMMENTS: Saturday night my body was longing for pile-up`s. At 20z I started
"my WPX". The goal was to collect points for the BCC, about 1000
Qs and something like 1.000.000 points.
The first hour on 10m was the best, followed by the 40m session
from 01z till nearly 03z (OE-sunrise). A short visit to topband
didn`t provide any DX so I moved on to 80m, where the only DX I
ran across was FY5KE, who sounded like a local - one call later
I was in his log.
Instead of working North/Central America on 40m I jumped to 20m.
The 04z-hour was very nice but could have been better. At 07z I
spent the last 30min on 20m and then 15m provided a continious
flow of stations until 09z.
After 16 hours of activity I reached my goal and I went QRT for
some social activities.
I can`t say that conditions did impress me - sometimes I had the
feeling something was wrong with the bands, hi. But I sure had fun
and won`t complain.
As usual the lowbands were dead and probably the highbands the
QSO- and multi-suppliers. Will be interesting if the box-entries
reflect this (they sure will!).
Thanks everyone for the nice contest,
73 de Oliver OE5OHO.
