Comments:

This contest was surprising! I don't even thought to be on all bands, but after
a invite from PY1ZV, Fábio to make part of A team competition, I forgot the
SOSB and went thru the AB even 

haven't 80m antennas. This kind of competition is cool and different so, some
guys of Rio DX Group around Brazil could be on it. 

	Well, this time time Murphy just ring my Neighbor's bells and here we go
again. In the middle of Pile-up on 15m I had to go there, take a little chat,
give him some Ferrite cores and he leaves me 

alone. Now I'm a Hacker, I put his internet down! Hi.. with only my 100w. I'm
tired of this!!! This is a P.I.T.A. Thus I thought, This is a hobby, not to get
stressed but relaxed and have fun, of course 

competition is amazing, but without annoying stuffs. When I get rich, I will
have my own Arcala. hihihi... Let's talk about the contest it's self.

	The bands started clean, I mean, no QRM and a lot of good multipliers around,
so I started my S&P on all bands as much as possible, less 10m for sure, but I
got a B7P at first night so LOUD and all 

night long calling, good surprise. I backed to 15m, 20m and my best one, 40m.
Good stuff there and I got surprised to get TX3A on 15m, I need to check the
TX3A logs to believe on it. Also VK6AA ON 20M then I 

thought to be possible get all Zones on 20m, but Zone 34 was active on 15m
only. After first day with some good running on 15m and 10m (even with my
neighbor complaining) and a ton of Red Bull and Pizza, I 

got a little concerned, this second night (We are in Brazil, so We catch almost
3s night for operation) start to be like a punishment or so. My mind wasn't
connected to my ears as well as my fingers I 

started to type everything wrong. Before it, I had a little break due an
thunder storm earlier and all bands became noisy.. (Murphy have talked to S.
Peter). That break was quick but nothing that much to 

thinking that I'm OK to keep going. I looked to Monitor and started to follow
on sleep, I tried to be running on the bands and no replies, so, I started to
follow on sleep again, 40m give me some energy, but 

the band was so noisy due to the storm that I feel like in a P5 at very first
time activation, everything that I heard was an unique sound changing his tone.
I should recorded this, well after a end of 40m is 

time to get time lost on 20m, and surprise! 20m was opened a lot, I could heard
all stations even without an antenna, but a little bit hard to be heard. But
like I said, I really needed some few minutes of 

sleeping, I'd even know what I was doing. 2 hours should resolve it but I
forgot to put the alarms on. hi! 4 hours later I'm back to the bands. I loose a
lot of Multipliers on 20m, this band is a P.I.T.A. No 

place to be on calling (and is twice sized than 40m), need to get squeeze or
so, and the main thing is, POWER! or a nice antenna farm. hihihi. Arcala Don't
leave my mind. Well, second day or can I say 

middle of second day and all bands became noisy what a torture, so I called
here, there, and hunt some more multipliers, ouch! I thought that 20m could be
completed, but at first day, I got 39 zones on 40m.
Let's get all zones for 20m and 40m, but the zone 34 still concern. So, I
couldn't complete all zones on any band, but was a incentive to be on. O lost
simple multipliers on 20m like I, LZ, GM, GW and go on.

But I really enjoy to be on and still here writing this report. Time to go bed
and get some, let me see, 4 hours sleep before reach the office. I hope to be
on ARRL 10m even with my neighbor complaining.

I really appreciate the patience with me on 40m last night and tonight, because
the QRN and QRM was scary. My logs as always, is on LoTW already, QSL is OK
Bureau (When works) or direct. 

BTW: No jokes about my call this time, actually just one or two but nothing
that makes me LOL! I loved those jokes. I hope to see you guys in 2 weeks on
ARRL 10m.

Sorry for this Bible and my terrible English.


Best Regards and c ya!
