[ADXA] CQ WW RTTY is in the books

[WB5JJJ]

Well, the weekend is over and I fell short of my goal of 200,000 points in
the RTTY contest.  I still had just over 2 hours of legal operation time,
but elected to nap more often than I should have.  I did NOT pick up any
new DXCC and after about the first day, I was having trouble finding
stations that I had not worked on the same band.  Still I had 405 contacts
and over 185,000 points.  That pales in comparison to local hard-line
RTTYers like John (BHS) and Charles (CS), but I keep trying.  It's amazing,
but not really, at the stroke of 0000 GMT, the bands went DEAD.  And I mean
like they were turned off by some master switch.  My logs are submitted and
uploaded to LoTW, some even already verified.

On to real ADXA news, I finally broke my hangup at 268 DXCC last week with
Sri Lanka on 15m FT8.  He uploaded 2 or 3 times since we worked, but no
confirmation on LoTW.  So I sent him an email and he said it was "now"
uploaded.  Don't know what the "now" meant, but anyway it's there.  Happy
camper here.  It's been over a year that I've been stuck without an ATNO.
