Comments:
Best conditions since 2005 when I was clueless in the contesting and DX world
(but having lots of fun nonetheless). Nice to have more Q's on 15 than on 20,
and more on 20 than 40 and more on 10 than 80. I guess this makes sense?
Europe was not so good (well, Sunday was better), but Asia Pacific (including
Asiatic Russia), the Carib and Latin America were great!
Very happy with my IC 7600 - love the 1.8 kHz SSB digital filter - it really
came in handy. I still have a horrible antenna for it, but I made 183 Q's, so
the antenna is functioning as an antenna. Even got Japan and Asiatic Russia on
80m and some good DX on 40M including VK6 - a first for me with my set up. So
having now used my IC 7600 in RTTY, CW and phone contesting, the IC 7600 is a
winner. I had two strong local stations above and below and worked the station
in between. My old 706 could not do that - complete front end overload.
Fastest QSO - with KL7RA - took less than a second from him to me and me to him
(or so it seemed). Cool...
Thanks to all who picked up my signal and not always out of the mud.
All the best, 73 KE7AUB
