Title: DX Contest 11/25/12
Post by: k4lrx on November 25, 2012, 04:00:57 AM
Twenty meters came to life around 2300z, several stations with very big signals from China were worked, B1Z, BY1OK, BY1CW, BY1CQ all with very good signals, Zone 24 was well represented on this band. At least these stations stayed around for many contacts, seemingly they quickly run away on 40 meters, but not true on twenty.

Other stations in the contest were PJ4A, C6AUM, HK1NA, P4L and VP5CW, if you read my review on the FT 5K and well it performs, I cut in the 600hz roofing filter, narrowed the band width to 300 hz, used the memory keyer and just worked the contest. Indeed amazing results.

More reports to come on the contest for the weekend..
