Hej
Godt at se noget aktivitet om ARRL DX CW contesten her på reflektoren. Jeg
ville have skrevet en påmindelse om contesten ugen før, men reflektoren her
var nede (ligesom alle andre på contesting.com). Det lader nu alligevel til
at aktiviteten fra OZ var rigtig god!
Jeg har været heldig at få tildelt OZ0X, så dette call måtte naturligvis
luftes - en stor tak til Finn OZ7YY for lån af QTH endnu en gang. Forholdene
var super-gode på samtlige bånd inklusive 160 m, hvor jeg fik kørt hele 100
stationer. Resultatet er mit bedste i en contest til dato, men "desværre"
var Leif OZ1LO også i gang som SOAB HP og slog mig med 200.000 point.
Her kommer så mit result:

Thanks a lot to Finn OZ7YY for the use of his nice station for the weekend.
It was the first time I operated with my new contest call OZ0X as I got the
call only a couple of days before the contest. Only a few did copy OZ1X or
OZ9X so it seems work OK.
I had a blast in the contest - especially in the first 24 hours where I made
1700 of the Q's! I had never dreamed about running US stations on 160 with a
last ten rate of 100 qso/hr, but now I have tried that also. All the other
bands also played extremely well during whole weekend.
During the 2nd night I started to fell asleep during the QSO's so sri if I
pushed the wrong key at times. It was also a pity that I had to stop
operating
at 21Z on Sunday in the middle of a run on 20, but I needed to travel to my
home QTH and go to school on Monday. Anyway, it sure was my best contest so
far!
If anyone should be interested, more numbers and the complete log is

QSL for OZ0X is via LX1NO.
CU in the next contest.
