Hello all TOP Band DXers.
=20
At the end of November Peter,OM6TY has left the Iraq and now me OM2DX is =
taking the place for him. I am really glad that I can use his license =
until I will get my new one. During the contest we were trying to make =
some contacts but it was very hard foor us. But one week after the CQWW =
contest I came to 160m and I made around 100 QSO's. Not much but this =
was just a try. I was really surprised that I worked almost whole Europe =
and also a JA station eventhough my signal was probably very weak. I =
don't have PA for 160m so I am just using 100w and LW antena also not =
very good situated. I will try my best to improve the antena in the =
future and I will be active as much as possible on Low Bands. Please =
notice that weekend here is during Friday and Saturday so during this =
nights you will find me on the band. Also notice that working on 160m =
with this conditions is suffering and I have sometimes hard times to =
catch the callsign so please be patiente and human. Most of the time I =
will work split giving UP so please spread up and don't be on one pile. =
I have a homepage on qsl.net  www.qsl.net/om2dx and I will try to update =
it soon so there will be a YI frame so you can check if you had a =
contact or not. I would like to ask you don't call me if you are already =
in log to give Iraq to as many people as possible. This message was send =
to contesting.com on December 2nd and you can find me on band tonight. =
My email address on my homepage is not working so please if you want to =
arrange a sked or send some messages to me use the former address of =
Peter  kristof@uruklink.net . I am cheking this mail very often.

So that's all from me now I wish you all the best, take care and I hope =
I will hear you guys on TOP Band=20
