Comments:
OK, I’ll admit it, I’m not a CW contester. Not yet anyway… But I’m
pretty happy with my results in the CQ 160 CW contest. Was only able to do 1
night (and a small amount this morning early cuz I couldn’t sleep). Again
everything worked well, especially the 160 antenna. Best 160 antenna I’ve
ever used. Wish I had a 4-square… I was low power, unassisted, single op.
Began Saturday evening about 21:50 and worked a total of about 6 hours with a
lot of off time strewn about. Not a totally honey-do free evening. But in the
time I worked 185 contacts, 43 states / provinces and 3 countries. Not a ton of
noise and pretty good conditions. Total score 20,148.
I vow to do more CW contests and get better at them. In fact If I can get some
time I’m going to take that CWOps CW Academy course that Pete, W1RM told me
about. I’ve been trying to get good at CW since 1975 so maybe it’s time
for some help!
