160: After sun flare we could not make a single QSO for some time.
During the first night worked only several USA stations and on the
last evening few Ja's.
80: It was evident , that EU RUS stations were very active- nobody
needs zone 16 and our country! Due to that we may have lost EA6IB, AH2R, NH0S and some others. By daylight on Saturday there was no one station from JA
or USA LP, even some EU stations came back after 4 or 5 calls!
On Saturday night were better conditions, we managed to
get super mult TI5X/QRP,thanks.
40: Turned out to be most lucky for us: 141 countries and 40 zone.
KL7FH was heard working JA's and USA for at least 5 hours, before
he answered to us ( it was the last zone 40 on the band ).
The conditions also were very poor long time with signals close
to the noise level. The conditions on the second day were much better
for DX like H44MA ,ZK2MO ,V63A etc.
20: The pipeline on USA on the first night made it possible to get
800 qso 's first 6 hours. Unfortunately low JA activity and some
technical problems consumed some contest time. Anyhow 146 countryes
and 40 zones were done.
15: The band seams to be most difficult because antennas for 40 and 20
meters very close to 15m antenna. When both 20 mtr and 40 tx are on,
the interference on 15 m RX became too heavy to get weak signals.
10: Some difficulties with tx/rx switch on first day led 2 hours
delay. On the second day the conditions were satisfactory, although the
score was much less to be deserved.
The CQ WW contest gives a lot of fun for the team operators.
The final score is greatly depends on aurora especially on the
first day.
Congratulations teams RW2F and DF0HQ with good results.
