Hi Guys,
I'm quiete a newcomer in contest world , just for 1995 , i've heard many =
great operators , from US and outside the US , and i think that many =
many of those would be awarded as "the best" , but ,as many others on =
the reflector sayed , we have to say on what they are "the best" .
I remember OH0XX , K7BV , N5KO , S59AA , G3TXF and many others ( i do =
apologize for not writing them but i need too much space ! ) for their =
fastness and "good ears " on CW . Sincersly ,being mainly a CW op i =
cannot say too much about phone operators even i can say that ears like =
DJ9ZB (not a full contester but very active DXer around the world) are =
not so common .
In my opinion even to give a judgment about operating skill , we can =
always think about the station they are using : being using a TS50 and =
multiband ant is not the same that being at KC1XX or W3LPL or ON4UN qths =
to say some big "top notch" contest station . It's easier to catch call =
that are well over s 9 , even with others so strong sig , that find a =
weal call between a crowdy bands ..... hearing that guys they seem to =
have less skill then the others ,but we don't know really what they are =
hearing !
I think that each man has the duty to give his maximum doing a thing , =
each DXer , contester , who do that can be awarded as the best .... of =
course talent is something that nobody can learn ..... you must have =
.... WRTC tried to discover who is the best , the most skillfull =
contester , but even there the differences between the first teams was =
so little that each one thought to be able to beat the winner " just if =
........"
When a big DX-pedition starts each of us hope that a particular HAM will =
join the team , since he know that man is easy to be worked into pile up =
, the answer to this question give you , in my opinion , your favourite =
ham in manage a pile up and in op skill ..... but probably the answers =
show us a moltitude of call signs .....is not easy to say who's the best =
!
