Comments:
Doing a competitive SOAB in CQWW SSB has been a dream of mine. Amazingly lucky
to go from a seat request on the cq-contest reflector a few weeks ago to
fulfilling that dream from V47T.
The original plan was to do MS with NP4Z, but Felipe ran into some work
conflicts and offered me the chance to do a single op. N2NT and NP4Z had planned
a trip to do station repairs. I felt like a rock star when they picked me up at
the airport and helped get everything set up for the contest! It was lonely when
they left for home on Wed. Gave me some time to enjoy the beach and drive around
the island.
The station is on a hilltop at about 1000 feet ASL. It is a steep drop toward
Europe down to the ocean about a mile away. Not bad to USA either. It requires
an AWD vehicle to reach the station.
There a million stories and comments I could report, but will have to wait for
another day. Still in recovery mode.
Slept 3 hours Sun morning. Rates were getting slow and I knew I would need it to
push through another day of QSO making on the high bands.
Was completely isolated in a concrete bunker for the weekend with a single
window to see if it was daylight or dark. For 48+ hours I did not think about
anything except where the next QSO was coming from.
A bit disappointed with the mults, but conditions just weren't open very deep.
So went with a run at all times strategy. Never heard zones 19, 23, 24, 29, or
34.
Hilltops on islands in the Caribbean rock.
Amazing all the activity that shows up on the bands during CQWW. Thank you all
for making it the best radio weekend of the year. And again, thanks to N2NT and
NP4Z for use of the station and V44KAI for local support.
Some numbers.
