CQ WPX SSB Contest - March 24 & 25 2007
This seems to be a very active contest. There is a lot of flack from folks who don’t like contests, but I’m convinced that they help us Amateurs to be prepared for emergencies. Gives us a good chance to make sure that the rig can be heard all over the world.
Discovered in this contest that the 40 meter dipole that I made and put up performs very well on 40 and 20. I made 159 contacts during the contest. My favorite contact was one to Sweden.
I don’t ever call CQ during the contests, I just answer them. I bet I could make a better score if I called CQ, but just don’t feel like doing it.
