Comments:
I've never enjoyed watching the live score as much as in this contest. In fact,
I believe there were times when I got distracted because it was genuinely a show
worth seeing!
I must extend my gratitude to my friend Sergei UT5UDX (P3X), whom I specifically
asked to post his score online, despite the fact that each of us was competing
for different goals. Milen LZ5DB would operate LZ5R and I would operate from
here. We were set to be three great friends, commonly working together in
Multi-Op contests, but now competing from three different continents: Asia,
Europe, and North America. The outcome? P3X claiming a new World Record, LZ5R
(LZ5DB) claming the European Record, and K1LZ claiming the North American
record. Congratulations to both of them for their respective achievements. I am
entirely convinced that we wouldn't have been as motivated and focused on
enhancing our results if it weren't for the live scoreboard. It certainly helped
us all to stay in the game. For those who are still hesitant, come on! Get
involved!
I enjoyed this contest and the station that once again showcased its beauty, at
least during Saturday with a stable K index and spectacular propagation.
However, Sunday was not even remotely similar when the geomagnetic storm hit us
and the K index shot up to 6, which significantly impacts operations here,
causing me to switch to a more S&P strategy and chase multipliers with the
third radio.
I hope the activity does not continue to decline, especially now that we have so
many bands with propagation to populate.
A special thanks again to Krassy for letting me operate and play with the
station, and to Milen LZ5DB for all the hours of conversation, advice, and
setups in the week leading up to the contest.
See you next!
