With your weak signal, you'll mainly S&P. Especially in the beginning of
the contest. You may be able to CQ on Sunday when the big boys are
desperate for additional QSOs.
Make any contact you want. But when you submit the Cabrillo, you will note
that you are 10M single band. The other band contacts won't count towards
your score. They will only be used to check other logs.

Well guys, this is it! Tonight at 1900 I start my first contest.
I will be a Single Operator, Single Band (10M), 25 Watts (RS HTX-10),
operation.
I realize that this contest starts just as the band usually dies, but maybe
I'll get a few Carribean and SA stations. Tomorrow, I've got a couple of
"things" but hope to put in at least 6-8 hours. Sunday will be a noon to
close operation with a few breaks, probably a 4-6 hour effort.
A few questions:
If your're a sqeaky toy like me, do you S&P or find a clear freq and
holler? I plan to S&P, but will listen to all advice.
If I pull out the TS-160 and try to do another band after dark, what
should I choose, 40 or 75? This rig is 100W. I'll just put the proper
resonator on the Hustler MO-2. Also, if I do, I'm confused about something
I read:
<snip>
3.1.2.1. A participant may submit only one single band entry. If contacts
are made on other bands, the log file must clearly be marked as Single Band
in the header of the Cabrillo file.
<snip>
How can I work on another band and submit an SOSB report?
Thanks for you patience with the over-excited newbie...
