Comments:
Several records are indeed squashed, and this contest will be fondly remembered
for many years!
Hardware: FT-1000MP + AL800H
Antennas: rotable 3 ele yagi @75 ft heigh and fixed 3 ele yagui, aimed to the
caribbean.
Objectives were to double the previous XE record for the SO 10M HP (A)
category and work at least 80 DXCCs
Despite a 20 minutes late start, I was able to find a run frequency that
yielded 249 QSO's, most of them Asia and stateside.
The previous XE record fell easily on the first operating hours -just shy of
the
band closing at 0357z ( Friday 9:57 PM local time).
The band started to open at 1220z; baut it was until 1229 that I worked the
1st european (EE3A)it
was a strange, because they are normally the last ones I work.
Poor runs sateside (<60/hr) lead me to change to S&P, checking spots
and doing a band sweeps.
The strategy remained the same for the rest of the test, interleaved with very
short runs, and constantly
looking for mutipliers.
Notes:
- Worked DXCC
- Sunday was much better than Saturday
- on Sunday it was the 1st. time -since I was licensed (22 years ago), that I
heard a SSB VU station ( 5/8 strong),
but decided to harvest other mults, instead of spending too much time on
the ensuing monster pile-up .
- The 2Megs score was reached on Sunday at 1916z
- Best personal result ever -on a monoband category.
- Glad to work XE1H Multiplier on ground wave, and also local fellow contesters
XE2AA and XE2AI
Objectives accomplished, thanks for the Q's !
