Hello!

Well, I dont think that it is a good idea to just work on one band the 
first day and then change band another..........a friend of mine 
SM3JLA who scored over 5.5million points in the CQWW SSB 
(from Sweden, the old record was 2.7Mp)this year told me that you 
should switch band pretty often and go from S&P to running pretty 
often so you dont miss any mults, that was his secret and I think 
that sounded pretty ok.

Im not sure if I will do the contest serious or not, if I do it will be a 
training before the WPX and I'll do it SOAB SSB from  SK3LH. I'm 
going to ask if I can take our microwave uwen with me :-) 
I sure hope I can kick some butt in that contest and I would really 
prisuate if Hrle could send me a copy of his log to.

And then about the IOTA contest. I'm looking at the sea map and I 
found some very intresting islands. One is Mjältön and is the 
highest in Sweden, 236m actually and it's about a 10km from 
here..........I'll see what island that is the best, not good to be on a 
236m island if it starts to storm......

I havent been very active lately as you guys/girls may have noticed 
and It's because of school I guess but I will do every contest bigger 
contest this year. CQ WPX, All Asia, SAC, CQWW, IARU and 
also some smaller ones.......som RTTY etc. I encouruge you 
guys/girls to work the SAC contest.....pretty easy to get a plaque I 
guess.......and work me!!! That is a fun contest, just call CQ for 24 
hours (for the scandinavians), well almost just call CQ.........some 
S&P is neccassary......

I'll be doing the WPX SSB contest from SL3A (SL3ZV) SOAB HP 
Rookie and I sure hope to get that Rookie title......if the conds are 
ok I will go for the Swedish record, 4million!!
My strategy is to have the beams on the highbands always poiting 
Asia or to the west.....and let the lowbands do the stuff in 
Europe........4sq on 80m should do a good job and a 3el on 
40m.......If the conds are ok I'll also work NA on 40m offcourse and 
also JA for the 6 pointers........!! 
I hate and love that stupid rule about 36 hours.....:-)

Well, enough bullshit from me now, byez!
