Wow! This was really something. Only my second time as DX and first time as
DX in CQWW. I arrived at KH6ZM's QTH late Tuesday, giving me all day
Wednesday/Thursday to learn the equipment setup and check propagation. I had
to move slowly with the hardware to keep from blowing something up! The
pre-contest operating was wild. With a relatively small number of operations
on pileups were huge. The over-the-pole propagation to EU was very
interesting. Lots of mush on the signals and many signals of similar strength
sometimes making even getting a partial call-sign a challenge. D4C called me on
160m the night before the contest, the pre-contest highlight.
The contest was lots of fun. Picking calls out of the pileups is still a
challenge. I'm just not used to it. Eventually, I got better with using the
RIT and it was easier but I still need lots of work. I would have had two more
hours operating time but I had hit a switch by accident and couldn't get
anything to work. Finally discovered what had happened and all was well again
except I lost two hours. I had a fantastic time working 10m/15m long-path to
EU. My first time working LP on 10m/15m and it was unbelievably COOL. LP
conditions better on the first night of the contest but second night was still
very good. Missed many multipliers because the runs were too good to leave.
Unusual for me because my normal Q-rates are so low I'm usually trying to get
multipliers. Not so in this contest. Among the contest highlights I think the
best one is working all 40 zones on 15m. Thanks VK6LW with less than 2 hour
remaining in the test!!!
There's just so much to say about this experience. Being DX helps, having real
antennas helps. This was the realization of a long-time ham radio dream for
me:
Being DX in CQWW! I hope it's not the last time. I don't think it will be.
It was really great getting to work so many old friends from the DX-side.
Thank you all for calling and thanks to everyone else for your Qs, too.
And, finally, many thanks to Max and Kathy for hosting me. Besides being
gracious hosts they are both very good cooks, a point that can't be emphasized
enough. In addition to learning LOTS about contesting from Max, he also shared
a secret with me that I will use the next time I make homemade limoncello.
73 from the desert,
