My First CQWW

I thoroughly enjoyed my first real effort at contesting.  I won't bore you by
posting my miserable scores, just let it suffice to say that I only made 350
or so QSOs.  On Friday evening I decided that I would ride 20 for all she was
worth and operated until about 9pm local time working mostly KH6 land and one
VK.  I then switched from my C3 to my 40 & 80 mtr windom...nothing but a
sickening silence.  Radio Shack and the local ham store are both closed and
its dark now anyway.  I CAN tell, however, that my windom feedline is hanging
suspiciously lower than normal.  Oh well, may as well turn in early & see
what the problem is in the a.m.  First light reveals that Murphy (you know,
the beast on the wing of the plane in that old episode of The Twilight Zone)
has been at work on my dipole center conductor and half of my dipole is stuck
dangling above the ground at about 50 feet. I have learned that even if a
dipole has been up just fine for close to a year, at contest time it WILL
fall.  I'll have an extra on hand next year just in case I want to work 40 &
75, and hopefully will also have an amplifier sometime in the next month
because 20 meters without one is terribly frightening.  Happy Halloween & see
ya'll in CQWW CW!!  73, Mike   KK5EP

******************************************************************

Well I only have received about 3 scores in the last week so this is
going to be the last post on this contest. Please do not send me 
anymore scores. Look forward to working everyone in ARRL RTTY
Roundup. 

Thanks to everyone who gave me a contact and for anyone reading this
who does not know about RTTY contesting feel free to email me about
it. It is one of the best tuneup tools for the SSB and CW contests
around.

********************************************************************

Here is another day of scores for everyone to ponder. I did not have
time to put the name of guest ops on this sheet. I will try my best 
to get them on the sheet tomorrow night. You will just have to bear
with us a little since this is the first time and lots of time has
been wasted trying to make things work. For CQWW CW there should be
no problem since now I have the basic forms to work with. Thank you
for your patience.

Well here is the new form on the breakdown. I hope this is to everyones
liking. This job is worse than trying to make my wife happy at times.

XE2DV did not send me a breakdown on their 15 meter band. That is the
reason for the 0's.

Since one of our COntest brethren in PY-land brought up the point about 
listening down south...

I wonder if anyone has success running South America? My experience has 
been poor. Seem to be a fair number of LUs, CEs, PYs, etc. calling CQ, 
and having good signals, but my own CQ brings a very limited response.

I've heard stories about guys running them when CQing and sending 
exchange in Spanish, but, like Newt, English is my forte. (I do speak 
some French, but can't imagine generating too much of an FY pileup :.) )

I was not going to comment on this because I feel like most due. The problem
is on your end. You need to get a better connection to Internet. I know
companies frown on the employee's using the Internet for personal use but
that is still your choice to do. 

Now to the gentlemen who made the comment about the 100 W station with a 40
foot tower. I am one of those stations and I scored 656K this weekend. I
have won a divisional leader award in the 10 meter contest and came in 6th
this year. Also am very active in RTTY contesting. I love the thrill of
contesting and running stations and that is why I do it. I do not have the
money or the land to build a super station. That is nobody's fault but just
a fact. I do the best I can with what I have.

According to your comments us little pistols do not mean anything to the
contest except a contact. What we did and how we did it means nothing to you
according to your statement. Remember that if not for the little guys in the
contests giving the big guns the contacts then their scores would not be as
good. I have worked at a MM station and it is something else to give the
call in the pileup and they come back to you on the first call. I am used to
spending as much as 15 to 30 minutes to work a station. Imagine trying to
run stations on 20 with 100W. It becomes quite a challenge and I thought
that was what contesting is all about.

I have always said one thing about a contester and it is not reflecting or
bragging on myself. You can take an average contester and put him on a big
gun station and he will do good. Put him on the same little pistol station
and lets see if he knows his way around. I really believe there is more to
contesting than just plopping the key down on 1500W and calling CQ. This is
not to say that the big gun operators are not good because they are, but you
need to put everything in perspective.

Finally it is an attitude like yours that is really hurting contesting right
now. I have for years tried to get CQ and QST to breakdown the US part of
the contest by call areas. Say the top three from each would be listed in
the main body of the article and not just at the back. It is a known fact
that nobody should beat a 1,2 or 3 in a contest on a regular basis. Even in
4 land I cannot give them much of a run. I really feel for the guys in the
midwest. I know there are super stations out there that can get through but
I am talking about the majority. You would be amazed what seeing your call
in print can do for a new ham or contester. 

At a time when it seems that contesting is picking up some real steam we
need to drop this better than thou attitude and not forget the past we came
from. I do not know of many hams who start out with 6/6/6 at 150' and an Alpha. 

Well better stop before I overload somebody, but that comment really riled
me. Of course these are just my opinions and thoughts.

OK, So maybe it is interesting what someone with a 100 watts to a tribander
could do...if he went full bore-all out...
What I dont get are the postings that start out something like this:
"Only got 8 hours in due to gall bladder operation.....
Heres my breakdown......"
This score is almost meaningless to me. 
Id rather wait to see it in the summary of scores that is being collected. 
On the other hand, I do like to see and hear stories from the people 
who really were competing in the contest.

Tim - 6S  (or should it be NU, or is it US since 6 is not a letter, or maybe
SS?)
All heck. How about last 4  letters only....NU6S

I (ZS6BRH) had to retire due to a bad dose of gastric flu.  Next I'll build
a bathroom in my shack!  Will send in more S.A results as I hear them.

Comments:

Phenomenal! Astounding! Superb!  These are a few of the ways I would
describe 40m band conditions over the weekend.  The JA runs never stopped.
There usually comes a time a couple hours before sunrise when the BC
interference is so great that even we left coasters have trouble being
heard over the crud.  This never happened.  Another positive was the total
absence of DIGITAL qrm below 7.100.  I'm used to dealing with Pactor, Amtor
and RTTY signals that are 20 and 30dB over 9 when our propagation peaks
into Asia.

There was sooo much activity from Europe it made weeding out mults from
beneath the big sigs a real challenge.

One major highlite was working TR, EA6, SV5 and my old pal ZD8Z with about
15 minutes to go.  The SV5 and ZD8Z in the last 2 minutes!

I come away with the impression that had there been more mult activity huge
scores would have been possible.  Some of the mults I would have expected
to work, but didn't (not in any particular order):

    4U1UN, 6Y5, CP, J6, J7, J8, OA, TF, TG, FM, OX, PZ, VP2E, VP2M, VP2V,
VP9, 7P8, A2, C5, CN, D44, FR5DX, V5, 4X, 9K2, 9M2, BY, HS, HZ, JD1, 3D2,
FO, KH8, V6, V7, VK9NS, 4U1ITU, GM, GW, LX, LY, PA, SV, YL.....

Zone 17 was the only one I heard and did not work.
Zones not heard: 21, 22, 23, 37, 39

I'm so pumped for the CW test I wish it would have started right after the
end of the Phone test...
