I'm planning a serious effort for WPX RTTY this coming weekend.
I'm still an extreme newbie to RTTY contesting - but boy has it been fun so
far. I was hoping the veteran RTTY contesters could provide some tips on score
maximization and on operating this contest in general. I also see that the max
operating time is 30 hours (instead of 36 max in other WPX contests) - this
seems like a mixed blessing and I'm curious how serious WPXers deal with it
with their off times.
I've attached some of initial goals below. They seem fairly realistic - a
projected rate of 36 qsos per hour over 30 hours. This seems very doable
based on my current station capabilties and the growing participation in this
event.
Thanks in advance.
