Lige et par ord mere om CQWW SSB contesten den 27-28 oktober - den største
SSB contest af dem alle :-)

Jeg bliver selv igen QRV fra OZ7YY i SOAB HP klassen. Forhåbentlig er der
også andre, der har planer om at deltage?

Reglerne kan læses her: http://cqww.com/2001rules.htm

Announced Operations findes her: http://www.ng3k.com/Misc/cqs2001.html
- specielt interessant er selvfølgelig XP1AB-ekspeditionen! Det lyder som et
stort og spændende projekt - jeg ser frem til at få OX/Zone 40 på rigtig
mange bånd :) Held og lykke deroppefra!

Jeg håber at kunne slå OZ5KF's All band rekord tilbage fra 78! Tillykke til
3SK og 8AE for de nye rekorder på 160 og 10 meter sidste år.

Også godt at se de gode rapporter fra Oceania DX-contesten fra 5DX og 8SW.
Forholdene tegner jo godt for CQWW, men ifølge W3ASK er der risiko for
at vi bliver udsat for et soludbrud ligesom sidste år :-(


Fra http://news.cq-amateur-radio.com/news.htm
>There is a high probability of a geomagnetic storm during both the SSB and
>CW weekends of the CQ World Wide DX Contest, according to CQ magazine
>Propagation Editor George Jacobs, W3ASK. Jacobs says the severe geomagnetic
>storm that disrupted HF communications between October 1 and 4 could cause
>additional disruptions during the last weekends of October (the SSB
>contest)
>and November (the CW contest). The storm was caused by eruptions on the sun
>that sent streams of solar particles toward the Earth. The sun rotates once
>every 27 days and conditions tend to repeat as active regions again face
>the Earth.
>
>In his column for the December issue of CQ, which will reach most readers
>before the CW weekend, Jacobs says, "The dates October 1 and 2 fall one
>solar 27-day recurrence cycle before the CQ WW DX SSB Contest weekend of
>October 28–29, and two cycles prior to the CW contest weekend. The solar
>recurrence tendency would indicate a high probability for a radio storm to
>occur during the SSB contest weekend ... The conditions observed during the
>SSB weekend will likely recur 27 days later during the CW weekend."
