>> Geographical advantage for ALL of the east coast? Uh, no. I ran a 4 el wire quad at a height of 120-130 ft on 80 meters in central FL and regularly got beat out to EU by W1/W2 stations running inverted vees at 80 or 90 ft. There is a difference of around 1300-1400 miles from northern ME to southern FL and no station in FL can compete with a NE station in DX contests. Now for domestic contests that's a different story. That's why putting SS and maybe NAQP in the mix for qualifying is a fair way to go.

>> It is possible to make a top three or four with a modest station in NAQP and SS if you are a good op. K6LL and others have done it.

>> By the way, if you have a modest station or no station, many good stations are available if you ask. The worst that will happen is the owner will say no. Also, consider using a club station. W4LT has used the Tampa Radio Club station and got first place US in the low power assisted last year.

>> Come on Bob, being in Al or FL is an advantage to work JA and VK, true. However, no way can it make up for the multitude of countries and QSOs that are available in EU, especially on 160 and 80. I'm only 4000 miles from JA out here in KH6, and would gladly exchange the NY EU runs for my much slower JA, BY, YB, HS runs from KH6. The quantity is just not there, even with my outstanding location.
>>
>>
>> You forgot one other thing too. Being in AL or FL means that we get almost one hour less darkness at the end of Oct and Nov to get all those 40, 80 and 160 mults and countries. Even the ARRL DX contests have that issue. The only time AL, FL have equal darkness is for WPX SSB. And no, the extra hour of light is not a big deal for AL/FL on 10, 15 or 20 especially at this point of the cycle.
>>

>> I once had a big time contester come down from NY to do a multi-single. He listened on 80 and wanted to know when the signals got better/stronger. I broke the news to him. That was a strong as they got. He was quite disappointed. End of story.

>> . The same way that being in Alabama should provide a BIG advantage vs. New England to working Japan, Southeast Asia, UA9/0 and the Pacific even though there are not as many stations to work.I?m sure that 100 miles North or South makes a big difference on some DX paths in Alabama too but that it is less noticeable until that 100 miles gives you a nice water path somewhere and then you will REALLY notice the difference.
