[CQ-Contest] RAEM-Contest e-mail-address problems

[Jim Brown]

Given the very nice scoring system, I tried to work this contest, but 
with very little success. Conditions were absolutely lousy in Northern 
California during the contest period, and many of the active Russian 
stations were alligators -- that is, they transmitted far more than they 
received. I was running 1.5 kW into decent antennas, but many repeats 
were needed with stations that were very comfortable copy here. Makes 
one wonder how much power they were running. :) Russia (and EU) is all 
over the pole for me; UA0 is a lot better from here, and all but two of 
the Russian stations I worked were UA0. Conditions were so bad that I 
didn't get past #11 in the log, even returning to the shack several 
times through the contest period. I finally gave up around 07Z.  I did 
manage to work the RAEM station though.
