[WWYC] WPX CW 9A9D M/S....

Tue, 28 May 2002 18:36:55 +0200

I'm back after 5 awesome days with 9A9D Team, it's always fun with M/Ss!
As usually I'll do some writeup after I get some pictures.
Anyway, wanted to say more about WWYC future again.
Hmm I believe SM3WMV felt attacked when I said about the website, now I
checked the new web site (for which one I didnt know it is acutally existing
untill oz1aa wrote it in the mail) and it's very good one but as many
noticed the only good information is membership list.
In few days, as soon as I catch up some time, because now after WPX exams
season started in Croatia, will give up as many infos as I have.
We have to start with "activity" page and maybe some other pages, as well as
with newsletter.
For now I invite all the members to send out pictures of their locations and
themselves as well as the stories by how they got into a hamradio, what's
their favorite contest, favorite expirience, previous activities and so on,
maybe we can make some short profiles on each member, and also to have the
fully birthdays and email addresses at least, as it's very important.

Seeing "Go WWYC!" (by KL9A) or N1SNB's "young guns" in WPX made me so happy
:-)
Not to mention all the WWYCers acitve, as far as I remember we worked LY7Z,
DL1IAO, N4YDU, EI/SP3CW, KB0VVT, WL7E, 9A5AGL, 9A2RD(9A6NDX), IK3UNA,
OZ1AA?, SM0W, KU6W(N6MJ), UT7L(UX0LL?), big ES9C (OH3RM) signal and sooooo
furder... this is what I've managed to remember.
As read from 3830 some others were also hiding behind big M/S teams.
Amazing! And we dont have anything to write about this? C'mon!

So far in Hall Of fame we have 3 members: (members that have passed their 30
yrs limit)
#1 8P9CV (Silent Key)
#2 N4JN
#3 N2NL

You can also put this into the "Hall of Fame" on the website.

Before I close down, just to say 9A9D already is a very serious M/S station,
we were only 450 qsos behind YT6A (winners probably) and that's just with a
lot of murphy around and you cant really get the best possible score from
the 1st time.
Beside 9A9D there is also 9A1P station that is continuosly growing and this
2 stations will soon with 9A7A I'm sure take the 1st 3 places in TOP EU
scores, yet dont know in which order :-)
Problem is only that we cant be on 2 sides at the same time, so the real
problem are operators, after fixing that and getting more WWYCers.

If you dont have time for writeups on mailing list or something like that,
before you work contest just drop a mail to a webmaster, or to me if you
want about what and where will you take action in the contest, I dont think
this would kill you and you would have a promotion already before the
contest :-)
So when KL9A or N1SNB hears you you would be automaticly spotted on the
cluster and that's 30+ qsos :-)

73! 9A6XX HrLee
