[CQ-Contest] DX Contest

[Yuri]

Hi Igor.

Yes, nice contest, except:
a) absolutely not suitable for North America (00 - 12 UTC, night time in Western hemisphere), unless you have HUGE antennas for Low Bands;
b) no way you may work casual participants because of high complexity of the exchange.

I tried to participate once few years ago... just a waste of time. Very boring event. Sorry.
