[ADXA] Wow! What A DX Rush

[Bill Priakos]

Great month for DX - I had a lot of fun getting a few on top band.  Leaving today for Papeete - will be QRV from FO, hopefully by Sunday morning ur time with top band activity; we leave for Hiva Oa next Wednesday and will be busy erecting 9 antennas for the four rigs at TX7T.  I am looking forward to hearing lots of ADXA calls....

I'm glad October is over as it proved to be an very intense month with a number of personal, work and radio action occurring.



To say the past two months have been pretty exciting for DX'ing is really an understatement. The number of fall DXpeditions really charged up the bands and frankly proved my point that conditions aren't as bad as Chicken Little has reported. The bands are open a heck of a lot more than we are led to believe, folks just aren't on to generate activity.

My proof in point is the number of ADXA members who logged VP6R everywhere from 160-10 meters! Several of you also put a new one in your log - CONGRATS!!



There's a little break before additional ones fire up. If you're still radio hungry and need some non-DX action the ARRL CW Sweepstakes contest is this weekend. Dave, NN1N is here at W5ZN and will be running SOHP from here in the contest. I believe he intends to use W5ZN as the callsign so if you here that callsign in the contest say hello to Dave.

I'll be providing moral support!



Later this month is the BIGGIE CW DX contest, the CQWW. There will be a ton of DX stations on during that event. You know what to do.....GET ON THE AIR AND WORK SOME DX!!!!



For now, take a little breather from all the recent action, make some quick antenna or station repairs that may be needed and get ready for the next round!
