Comments:
In February, CQ magazine published the all-time WPX SSB records. The all-time
15M LP record (869K)was so much worse than the 10M and 20M records (both well
over 2M) that many of us probably went after the 15M record. That goal, and the
desire to get some sleep, decided it. The old 5 element Hygain monobander (at
50') that I put up last October would get a workout. Pretty good conditions to
Eurasia Friday night local time before the band closed. Conditions to Europe
were poor Saturday morning (almost no runs), but much better Sunday morning. I
was amazed to be called by several Israel stations Saturday night past
midnight(Israel time) when no Europeans were heard.
Used my JRC-245 at 100 watts and Writelog software. Thanks to friend Don,
AA0NW, for the use of his call. Several of us plan to attempt a multi/multi
here for the WPX CW. We could use another operator or two and some help getting
the station ready.
