CQWW SSB CONTEST
Contest : CQ World Wide DX Contest Callsign : VK6ANC Mode :
PHONE Category : Multi Operator - Single Transmitter (MS) Band(s) : All
bands (AB) Class : High Power (HP) Zone/State/... : 29
Soapbox: A good turn out of operators meant we operated for the full 48 Hours
of the contest. It was the first time we actually used 2 radios for a
M/Single and the Multi Station worked lots of good Multis over the
weekend. Tough going on 40 but we will have our 3 element tribander up for next
year. We had some overseas visitors and it was a pleasure to welcome PA3BAG on
Saturday night and also 9A2BD on Sunday. He did some operating and I'm sure
found it a bit different working from Zone 29. A total of 98 DXCC countries
worked during the contest. Logs are printed and I'm sure Neil VK6NE will be busy
with qsling.
