CQ World Wide DX Contest
CQ World Wide DX Contest
| Call | Category | Comments | DP1POL | SO HP ALL | The QTH of DP1POL is Neumayer Station, Antarctica, Grid Locator IB59UH. Conditions were rather poor this year, 20m and 40m were the only bands that opened up at all. I spent a lot of time calling not to miss those elusive band openings. Nevertheless, I always enjoy giving out the CE9 multiplier. I got very few requests to repeat the zone this year, so my call sign seems to have made it into most of the multiplier lists available. Now I just cannot wait for all those sunspots to come back! | DR3W | SO QRP 40M | Some unexpected family commitments - cu next year | DU7HF | SO LP ALL | 73 | E51AND | SO HP 160M | I was operating only 160metres this contest . . . . Sadly lightning shut me down both nights and I managed only 11 contacts before having to disconnect the antennas due to local thunderstorm activity -- next time | EA1AER | SA QRP ALL | FT817 and multiband dipole | EA1DAV | SA HP 20M | Operation at EA1FDI location, great station and antenas. Thanks Javi | EA1GT | SO QRP ALL | Great contest ,bad propagation for me in 10 meters | EA1ITC | SO QRP 20M | FT817 + indoor multiband antenna | EA2DDE | SA HP ALL | ICOM 706 MKIIG dipolo DX-B Alpha Delta o hy gain avq 14 | EA2DT | SA LP 15M | SINGLE-OP SINGLE BAND ASSISTED 15M LOW POWER CW | EA2EA | M2 | Bands behaved as expected for this time of the solar cycle. 10 meters F2/Es propagation was almost absent. High band rx antenna didn't work well, need to fix that for the next one. Exciting and sportive EU dogfight with ES9C and 9A7A on cqcontest.net online scores. Thanks guys for the show | EA2GM | SA LP ALL | Thanks to all Operators. Coax trap dipole in window. See you in 2017 | EA3BRL | SO LP ALL | A DX party! | EA3FZT | SO LP ALL | I miss 10 meters propagation, only a few qso's, but fantastic all always. Thanks!! 73 | EA3QC | SO QRP 15M | Sorry by delaying. My PC gone QRT | EA4DXP | SO LP ALL | See you next year!. RIG - Icom IC-706MKII PWR - 80 W ANT1 - 10/15/20 m - ECO AVT vertical ANT2 - 40/80 m - homemade dual band wire dipole | EA4SG | SA LP ALL | Best 73 de David | EA5FIV | SA HP ALL | Tnx for contacts in my first CQWW CW 73's | EA5IIK | SO LP ALL | 100W , Inv.Vee for 7 Mhz tunable all bands.Enjoyed the test . 73s all | EA5RS | Checklog | Moved station to a new QTH and just started building antennas the day before the contest | EA6/E71DX | SA QRP 40M | Elecraft K1, Inverted V (APEX 4m AGL) | EA6SX | SO LP 80M | As usual problems. That time with the amplifier. They QRMed 59+ on 80 & 160m. Fourtunatelly was discover before the contest.I disconected and LP mode again. It?s a real chalenge LP on LF. The only key for that it?s: Patience, Patience and clear freq to be hear. No way with pile-up?s. It?s better to return when everyone it?s tired to call. Fortunatelly some new slopers and good conditions let me to work more than I though, even pacific on righ window time. Thanks all 73?s Mike EA6SX | EA8/DD0VR | Checklog | Canary Island Gran Canaria AF-004 EA8/DD0VR | EA8/HB9FIH | SA LP ALL | TNX all participants, 40/20/15m best few 80/10m most all American continents, Europe hard. FT-897D / ZS6BKW | EA8AQV | SO LP ALL | YAESU FT-897D DIPOLE WINDOM 80 WATT | EA8CN | SO LP ALL | You have to read the rules carefully before you start. No PC at home and I remembered (wrongly) that for the CLASSIC the operating time was 25hours. A pity since I got two nice multipliers at that time, hi! You have to correct this. At my age (73) it is nice to be able to compete without feeling the pressure you are used to have when competing | EA8EW | SO QRP 20M | Rig: Elecraft KX3 5W out, ant Dipole | EA8NQ | SO LP 15M | Station Description: TX/RX: FT-897D (?100 W output); Ant. G5RV Jr + 80-meter loading coils, 5-meter high over a 8-story building; Logging/Keying: NA software + home-made Accu-Keyer | EC1KR | SA HP ALL | I hope CU in the bands next year 73 de Jesus EC1KR | ED2RA | M2 | This time the team from ED2C used the special callsign ED2RA in memoriam of Gonzalo EA2RA who passed away this last year. Good operator and best friend will be hard to forget. The contest went well on friday night and saturday, turning a bit worse on sunday with noiser bands and shorter and unstable propagation. Huge RF returns from 40m vert ant fried the relays of 2 PA's making a bit harder the contest operation. Later, 80m dipole went crazy until the coax was changed. But finally all was solved. New operators on the team, which target is mainly waking the interest on contesting more than achieving amazing results. See you all next year and thanks for Qs and Pts! | EE2A | SA QRP ALL | Lousy propagation. 5 W into a vertical is hard | EI5DI | SO LP 40M | SD WinKey K3 P3 4-SQ | EI5KG | SO HP ALL | Good conditions need more time and better low band ante | ER5DX | SO LP ALL | icom 706MKII 100W IV DIPOL | ES5TF | SA QRP ALL | Rig Yaesu FT-897D, PWR 5 W, ANT 43m long EZ-Wire key - straight key manufactured for Soviet pioneers Very nice contest, made now my first QSOs on top band - each QSO is a new DXCC!! :-) | EU6AA | SO LP ALL | TRX - FT0-840 ant - Delta Loop 168m | EU6DX | SO LP 40M | Used FT990 100w+2x41m Zepp | EU8A | SA LP 160M | 73 | EU8F | SA LP 40M | 73 | EW1AFM | SO QRP ALL | TNX & 73! | EW6FW | SO LP 20M | 100W | EW7M | SA HP ALL | Good contest! | EW7RA | SA LP ALL | Good contest | EW8G | SO LP ALL | 73! | EW8OM | SO HP ALL | 73 !
