VU3WYBSO LP ALLMy licence was issued on 18 March 2019
VY0ERCSA HP ALLWas only able to manage 2 contacts on 40m on Friday night. K 1 pretty much kills propagation for us, but two stations in Finland managed to hear me. Saturday morning was much better, with a decent opening to Europe for about 3 hours, before I had to go to meet the plane taking me out of Eureka early Saturday afternoon

WQ6XM2N6KI posted these comments to 3830Scores.Com Was just going top play around and train some new OPs and we almost got all 3 rigs manned for the 48 hours. 20 and 40 the money bands for us and we reached our goal of 1000 QSOs on those 2 bands and were very happy with the amount of Qs we made on our antenna challenged 80 mtr band with quiet condx for our very noisy local environment. 10 and 160 mtr bands did not yield much for us. Ron (Wq6X) adds "the most important part of Ssb contesting is to say your callsign SLOWLY and succinctly. There is nothing more frustrating than hearing what is CLEARLY a new multiplier, yet you say the callsign so fast I can't understand it. Remember - if I log the wrong callsign, YOU get dinged.
