[CQ-Contest] Tuff Copy

[pwhelton at earthlink.net]

Hey Ron.  Thanks for the input.  It’s almost like it was deliberate.  I’ve experienced it before but not like this weekend.  It got pretty bad.  Glad (I guess I’m glad) I wasn’t the only one.

73,

Pat – KZ5J

Pat,

 

Don't know if you can blame that on the entity... much as I'd like to,.. but I noticed that phenomenon on 15 as well, both Saturday & Sunday.

 

Nothing you can do about it.  Chalk it up to circumstances beyond your control, and let it go.

Not sure if this has been brought up before or if it's something one has to

learn to live with while contesting.  Anyway here goes.  I participated in

the ARRL Int DX SSB contest this weekend as Single Op 15 meters.  Did anyone

else operating 15 meters this weekend notice the "Russian Buzz Saw"?  Maybe

it's just me and a localized phenomenal but it sure proved to be a pain in

the ass at times.  The Buzz Saw would move up and down the band seemingly

all day Saturday and Sunday.

 

 

 

Should I just write it up as part of the game and move on down the band?

Unfortunately it always seems to land on something I was trying to work for

a new mult.

 

 

 

Regards,
