DL8AAESO HP 160MIn this years WPX contest I tried to improve my DXCC score. Therefor I worked very few stations only and finally decided to send in a log for something unusual for me: 160m single band. I never did that before because I have small antennas for this band only, a homebrew MorGain wire antenna and Butternut HF-2v/BR-160 vertical

E2ASO HP ALLDespite the A-index starting out at 60, the band conditions improved overtime with some good openings to NA on 15m. The highlight for me was working CY0S on 15m. Overall, it was great fun as always and it looks like a new record for HS SOAB HP will be set. I must admit, I had overslept this time round otherwise the score would have been even higher. I miss hearing 'Kilowatt-Three-Zanzibar-Ocean' on the air. This is the first year without him. RIP Uncle Fred. Tnx for all the QSOs! 73, Champ E21EIC/E2A

E70YSO LP 40MI had big plans to prepare for WPX SSB lineup for score high in the end. After analyzing the logs from before, made an exact plan of what and how, and how to react if it doesn't work. Given the few days of the week before, expected a lot. But, but, but something similar to last year for the CW part, the storm monster G4 appeared, A and K index was high. I give up from contest location and stay at home, automated the setup because I know that my girls would go crazy if I made too much noise :). Contest on 40m is always difficult, but SSB in these conditions will be very difficult. Crossed from my mind, you are good in these conditions, you have a chance for good score. The contest begins. First hour, 10 Qs S/P, no one copy my LP and wire. Maybe does it make sense to continue on 40m. I'm gambling, taking a big break with the idea of taking as many breaks as possible on Saturday so that I have more time to work on Sunday because I expected the storm to calm down. During Saturday, I even considered switching to ALL, but persistence paid off. In the end, good decision, have a good result. I can't wait for the CW part, hopefully with couple antenna fully installed. 73 Marin
