I think its better in this situation HK3CQ stay quired because his private interest is showed in this subject very openly

Peter NO2R will be active in CQ WW 160m CW Contest from Cambodia.

As a good teaching aid I used the recording of K9PG operating ZF2MM in ARRL SSB. Very much usefull listening. Of course I do not appeal to copy somebody's style exactly.

There is an excited discussion now in CQ-Contest reflector, sometimes turning into opposition, concerning "open logs".

Ray WQ7R will be active in CQ WW 160m 2009 CW contest from Honduras with call sign HQ9R

I wanted to publish this summary later, but finally decided to do it now. Although ARRL DX CW 2009 will take place in more than a month, many contesters are already concerned about "where to go?". I believe that this information will help them to make a final decision.

There are only 2 more qualifying tests left in the selection race to the WRTC 2010. These are - RDXC 2009 and “On site championship of Russian Federation” (I am talking here about Russians). I would like to share some thoughts about selection Formula or “Selection criteria for participation in”World Radiosport Team Championship 2010” (“WRTC 2010”)

Finally I worked my first USA and that was Bob N7UA at around 04z. In the first 5 hours I had over 350 QSOs in the log from 13 zones and 56 countries! With a short vertical, 700W TX and no RX antennas! I was fevering! I couldnt wait till the next round.

A rare opportunity presented itself in July 2004 when I was invited by Alexander, 4L5A to assist him with hardware upgrading at his D44TT/D4B contest location before the WAE CW contest.
