Hi John,


you normally put the strongest signal from the U.S.A. into Southern Europe.

It shouldn't be difficult for you to find the strongest new subject for this
list.


I have one for you if needed: how do you manage to dare the few sunspots
with your broadcast signal. 

In other words, what is your station setup?


Thanks.




Claudio Astorri, IK2DZN

Oggetto: [CQ-Contest] We Need Sunspots!!

All--
 
I've been reading the CQ-Contest reflector messages over the past month or  
so and have concluded we need more sunspots.
 
Like many of you, I'm a busy guy, too. I have an executive job that is very

demanding. I get involved in lots of stuff in our hobby that takes time.
That  
being said, here are some general thoughts:
 
QSLs:
I work lots of guys so I get a lots of QSLs. I answer them eventually. I  
even pay for postage when the other guy chooses to not do so. It's just not
a  
big deal. Next...
 
Cabrillo:
As a standard, it works much of the time. When something screws up, I ask  
somebody to help me solve the problem and it gets fixed. It's just not a big

deal. Next...
 
QRP:
Someone calls me in a contest as K1XXX/QRP. I work him and put him  into my 
Cabrillo-compatible log and answer his card (eventually). It's just not  a
big 
deal. Next...
 
Etc.:
...it's just not a big deal.
 
I love the enthusiasm that is displayed here. I also find the  
curmudgeon-like behavior to be tedious at times.
 
For me, all of this is just not a big deal. Sunspots anyone?
