[WVDXA] CQ 160 CW LOG

[Clark L. Stewart]

Dave,

>Heck, you don't need a defense in this bunch.  Like you, I had great
>hopes of working a new one or two.  It just wasn't to be.  I worked a
>single PY5 who answered one of my CQ's.  That CX station was quite loud
>when I worked him as was CE1/K7CA.

      Hey, a PY would have been one more New One for me!  I have 106 worked 
on Top Band and nary a PY.


>There seemed to be a surplus of Irish stations.  I think I heard three
>and worked two.

      Since I had never worked an EI station, I took advantage of the 
"surplus."  I worked:  EI2CN, EI6IZ, EI7M and EI7JW.  If you don't have the 
QSL, you have to keep workin' 'em till you get a card.



>I'm embarrassed to be the basis of comparison.  I've already seen lots

>in the seventies.  I have to have the beverage and the EWE's ready for
>next year.

      OK, I'm bowing out of this competition!  I certainly know when I'm 
out-classed!  I'll certainly be interested in seeing what you do next 
year.  WOW, I wish I had that kind of contesting drive.  I'm more of a 
Multiplier Hunter.  The runs don't do it for me that much anymore.  I love 
to search out the weak little one that is a new mult and snag him.  But, 
that's the thing about contesting, you have to be good at both Runs and Mults.

      Sounds like you had a good time this weekend.  And, in the end, 
that's what its all about.


Clark, W8TN
1:30 a.m. and Time for Bed!
