Comments:
HOPE THAT THIS CONTEST GETS MORE PUBLICITY FOR THE NEXT GO AROUND. THE EXCHANGE
WAS A BIT AWKWORD SINCE MANY OF THE OTHER STATIONS HAD A LONG LEARNING CURVE.
MANY OF THE OTHER STATIONS WERE WILLING TO GIVE A QSO BUT NEEDED TO KNOW WHAT TO
GIVE. SINCE THE STATIONS OUTSIDE OF EUROPE ONLY HAD TO KNOW THEIR ITU ZONE THAT
WAS NOT AS DIFFICULT AS WORKING WITH THE EUROPEANS AN EXCHANGE WITH THEIR EU
CODES.
PROPAGATION WAS A BIG FACTOR AS THE BAND OPENINGS ON 10 METERS WAS LIMITED AND
THE LEARNING CURVE OFTEN TOOK A BIT LONGER TO EXPLAIN TO THE EU STATIONS. THE
DX STATION WANTS TO WORK AS MANY OTHERS AS HE CAN WITH OR WITHOUT A CONTEST. a
SIMPLIFIED LEARNING CURVE AND MORE PUBLICITY WOULD BE AN ADEQUATE SOLUTION.
I THINK THAT POSSIBLY SIMPLIFYING THE EXCHANGE TO JUST THE SIGNAL REPORT AND ITU
ZONE FOR EVERYONE SHOULD BE CONSIDERED AS MOST STATIONS WERE FAMILIAR WITH THE
ITU ZONE. MANY WERE NOT FAMILIAR WITH THEIR EU EXCHANGE. JUST A FEW WORDS FOR
THOUGHT.
I WILL BE LIKELY TO TRY THEIR NEXT EVENT AND I ALWAY HOPE THAT IT COMES OUT FOR
THE BEST.
THANKS FOR THE EVENT.
I LOOK FORWARD TO CATCHING YOU ALL IN ALL OF THE EVENTS.
