DX phone contest over the weekend lots of big signals from Europe as expected, countries worked were Romania, Serbia, Germany, England, Wales, Finland, Sweden Norway, Portugal, France, Isle of Man, and the list goes on for some time. Even had one station from rare Luxembourg.
Little activity from Africa as usual, XT2TT made a brief appearance on twenty and forty, but was spotted for some time on 30 meters and not much else. Only other station from Africa was CT3 worked on twenty ssb.
A few Japanese stations made it and a couple of stations briefly heard and worked from China. Caribbean was active with PJ, but nothing much else.
This morning on 40 meters 7.025 khz up 2 TX5K from rare Clipperton, very big signal from this operation and huge pileup. Work this one while you can since it will be some time before it is activated again. I can use this operation on 30 meters and will give it a shot. Over the years I have worked this deserted pile of palm trees on four bands. Ok get in the contest and work some new ones if you need them, have fun and good hunting.
