[ADXA] DX A Plenty This Weekend and NOW!!!

[Joel Harrison]

One of the BIG FOUR DX contests will be this weekend. The CQWW CW contest.
A huge benefit to DX'ers, not just in the contest but before, is many
stations are active from DX locations now in preparation for the contest.

My buddy John, W2GD just arrived in Aruba for P40W. Other buddy Ned, AA7A
is with the Voo Doo Contest Group in Suriname PZ now and on the air and
there are literally tons of others on right now before the contest that
you can work, you just need to get off the couch or out of the recliner
and GET ON THE AIR !!!!

One "hole" for me in Europe on 160 meters has been Corsica, TK. Tonight
Branko, S57C is in Corsica preparing for the TK0C operation and fired up
on 160 as TK/S57C. I was fortunate enough to work them so I now have that
"hole" filled!

Another added benefit of right now is these folks are firing up and
checking out BIG contest stations so signals are very, very good.
