     Downtown QTH again, not the beach location of WPX SSB...

* Made some bad mistakes choosing bands: started on 20m,
but could not produce good runnings (only 154 Qs/h). Should
have instead started on 15m (more Qs) or 40m (better value)...
* Didn't force me hard enough to operate more 40m...
* Only two hours at a rate lower than 100 Qs/hour...
* But not one single hour over 200 Qs. This serial number
thing slows the rate down SIGNIFICANTLY.
* I broke the old African record, but could not break the
five-year-old P40W score.
* And I think E4/OK5DX did beat me. Waiting for his score...

Shortly all logs of my four last activities will be merged and
each first contact per band and mode will be confirmed
automatically. If you did or do send a SAE + $/IRC
(Bernd Och, Chr.-Wirth-Str. 18, D-36043 Fulda, Germany)
you will receive your card directly, all other cards will go to
the national QSL bureaus...

You may find two new pictures on my website soon:

Club (BCC) will hold contester meetings on two nights...
