[SCCC] K6ZH ARRL DX CW 2024

[Jim Price]

I generally don't like this contest much, because EU openings for us on the
WC tend to be early and short, and we spend the rest of the day trying to
crack pileups to work something like a KP4 in the afternoons!  Not much
fun.  So I didn't budget much time.

BUT this year was entirely different.  I can't recall any contest in which
at least one band was open from WC to EU the entire time!  And the signals
from EU were just amazingly strong!

So even though I only managed about 8 hours of operating time, it was
really fun!  Like N6RV said, we could run EU pileups - and I was doing it
with 100 watts!

I really dislike SSB contests, but I'll give ARRL DX SSB a listen this
year.  The 10 and 15 meter phone bands are BIG!
