Hi Steve
It might be fun from some parts of the country, but here on the left coast,
working DX in a contest is usually about a 1-2 hour stint in the morning for
the Eu opening (if theres an opening), then it's listening to the east coast
work Europe for the rest of the day. Even the JA runs are not like they
used to be.
If we had spots, it might be fun, but the way it is now, most DX contests
suck from the left coast as far as activity. IMHO 73
