[CQ-Contest] What is a good prefix for the WPX Contest?

[Randy Thompson]

Not sure about weird or unusual, but a QSO that has stuck in my mind from many years ago was working A35NN in and ARRL DX CW contest.  His exchange was 5NN NN.  I remember it took me a few QSOs listening to figure it all out!

One of the fun things about the WPX contest is the number of multipliers.  Every new prefix worked helps build the score. Ray NM2O has looked at the TI7W log from last year and made a list of the USA prefixes worked.

Want to be rare this weekend?  Find a prefix that is not usually active and put it on the air!
