[Nodxa] CQ 160 Meter Contest

[Jimk8mr at aol.com]

The CQ 160 Meter CW contest is this weekend.  As with all contests, I  hope 
to hear and work lots of MRRC/NCC/NODXA people.
 
A notable difference between the CQ and ARRL 160 contests is that CQ does  
not have the ARRL's fixation about using more than one callsign by one operator  
or from one location.  So, it is perfectly all right to fire up from your  
own station with a second (or more!) call, start fresh, and make a lot  more 
qsos than you would otherwise.  You don't even have to drive between  different 
stations as I do in the CW SS.
 
I'm planning to be on with at least two calls during the contest. Most  
likely I will use one call one night and a different one the  second.  And maybe 
even a third on Sunday evening.
 
So if you have access to a club call, or even just a friend willing to  trust 
you with his, you can get a taste of the fun of the Multi-Station  contesting 
I have been doing for many years in CW SS.
 
Hope to work you early and work you often!
