[CQ-Contest] CQ WW DX SSB Midwest vs East Coast

[Weisz László]

"the problem is often between the chair and the transceiver"

Yes of course this top contester told the true, I agree, but there is 
the word: often...
With respect of top contester, I admire lot's of them...
I do not consider myself a top contester but I think not so bad that at 
17-18z when 9A1P made 230+ QSO I was able to made only 80 QSO. I made 
2898 QSO, 9A1P made 3193 QSO, so I lost 150 QSO of 300 within one hour, 
that is the point. 200 miles not too much but counts much in the last 
1-2 hours when eg. a band closes. This time I used a 5 ele monobander 
21mH (hilltop location, clear shot to USA/JA).
the other point: ".... it's better for central EU to work Asia/JA so..."
Never forget you can win a contest with USA/Eu stations. I made 1200 USA 
and 300 JA in the contest, that means to me, to be closer to USA is much 
more advantage than to be closer to JA.
