[3830] VE6CNU WPX CW/SO/SB20/LP

[Jerry Spring]

My final score:

 

759,054 points from 729 QSO = 1733 pts X 438 WPX all on 20m LP

 

 

 

I almost worked the allowed 36 hours (33.3 hours total), as the band
conditions seemed open the entire contest period!  At least I worked most of
Europe, the U.S., Japan and a little Oceania.  Lost in all of this was
Central America, South America and Africa - at least I didn't hear them in
Calgary.  The band conditions seemed really strange as it didn't seem to
matter which direction I pointed my 3 el yagi.  Quite often the signals were
as loud on my G5RV or Butternut Vertical.  One minute I was talking to a
province next door, and the next minute (without changing the antenna) I was
talking to Finland or New Zealand.  Anyway, this was my best contest result
to date, and hope to do even better next year - if I ever get the tower
raised from 40 to 60 feet and put up the TH6 in place of the TH3!
