CQ WW DX contest

Well, another new high this year for me. I won't be breaking into the top 10 by any stretch of imagination, but who am I to complain about reaching a new level???

Here is how the score looked:

Band QSOs Zones Countries
-----------------------------------------
160: 0 0 0
80: 67 14 37
40: 111 17 54
20: 236 20 77
15: 136 17 59
10: 37 8 18
----------------------------------------
Total: 587 76 245 Total Score = 506,217


Not too shabby for me. Of course, if I had the tower up, it is very possible that the 10-15-20 totals would have been much higher. I don't mind working 40 meters split, and often I find it is easier because the pileups are not always as great.

I did get a couple of new countries out of this one, so I have to get cracking on getting the cards out. 1A3A was a very pleasant surprise along with C50C. 1A3A was a new country and C50C added The Gambia on some new bands.
