TKS, Randy?I probably spend too much time on it but it is due for an update, for sure.  Your page is excellent ? congrats on the EA8 on 6 this morning?nothing printing here from EU!  Need a better antenna than the ?Crushcraft? 5 element?it?s not even close to M2 or homebrew from W5ZJ.  Your homebrew prowess is impressive?keep it up!

They decoded at -19 at 0154Z on 3.573.  In actuality they were on 3.580.  That's what PSK showed and where at least two of our members worked them.  I should have checked the Livestream and not rely on DXSummit.  No contacts since 0213Z.  Missed them!

He's been on 80m for the past couple of evenings. Pretty consistent

Bill, I'm definetely familiar with the Cushcraft 5 element. I bought the cushcraft 5 element I am currently using for $100 from a local ham. As soon as I got it home. I discarded the boom and replaced it with a longer boom and added an element to make it  6 elements. I still don't think even with the mods it can perform near as good as some of the other commercial antennas. 


I would start building another 6 meter antenna, but at the moment I need the 3 ham radio projects I've got going to a satisfactory conclusion. Hopefully, I will be able to update soon on these 3 things. 


All the best!

Subject: [ADXA] The best DX band. and other old stuff.
Message-ID: <RL2LMQJ1QTU4.U8849QXK0JPU1@luweb01oc>

Greed is a a powerful thing that can lead you to a path of pain and misery. A few months ago I wrote about not having 200 countries on any band. I set out to try and change that, amd finally did on 15 meters which is one of my most favorite bands. 


However, a very poweful thing called greed caused me to want 200 countries on a second band. I have always felt that 20 meters was the very best DX band. My Elmer, W5DYS Paul Dudley spent most of his time on 20 meters where he ran a Kenwood TS 820 into a National NCL2000 and then into a 2 element hygain tri-band quad. I'm sure you all remember the hygain quad...the one with the gamma matches. This was on a free standing 50 ft tower and was turned by a prop pitch motor from a WWII bomber. It seemed to me at that time, that he was one of the best operators, with the best station ever, and he did quite well on 20 meters. I later replaced his quad with a Telrex TB5EM, 5 element yagi after he suffered wind damage on the quad. 


After a year and a half as a young kid novice operating 15 meters and 40 meters I hitched a ride, with my friend Paul Coats WD5BMD ( later W5PRC), to the exam location in Memphis . I remember this trip well. We ate in at the first Taco Bell I had ever seen. I don't remember what I had, but I do remember, by drinking water, it fell within the budget of the $2 bucks I had in hand. 


The general exam was passed, as well as the CW test where I had to send and receive 13wpm in a big room full of people testing,  and I was ready to operate on 20 meters the very best DX band! What I found on 20 meters was lots of big stations, and lots of QRM that quicly overwhelmed my Hammarlund HQ129x and Johnson Viking Ranger which I had purchased with money earned from digging holes by hand....septic tank holes..at $25 each. When I finished digging a hole, it would be over my head, and I would need a ladder to climb out. I found this experience much like operating 20 meters. I was in much over my head, even after building my first amp, a single 811a in grounded grid which gave me a whopping 3db over the Ranger transmitter alone (you can do the math). I attempted to build a 20 meter quad, but lack of $$, and engineering skills hampered my attempt, and it was a failure. 


I finally left 20 meters alone and worked my DX on the easier bands. Which brings me up to the current date. I spoke with "Mr. Needmore" and he suggested that the easiest way to get to 200 countries on another band  was to bite the bullet and spend some time hunting on 20. I set JTAlert to give an audible alert on all the DXCC entities that I didn't have on 20, and was soon  rewarded with new DX spotted, sounds in the shack. One evening of operating around midnight gave me 5 new entities I did not have on 20, and I have been able to pick off an occasional new one. This morning I checked my count on lotw and it looked like this....


20M<https://lotw.arrl.org/lotwuser/accountcredits?awg_id=DXCC&amp;ac_acct=1&amp;aw_id=DXCC-20>1940519919917M<https://lotw.arrl.org/lotwuser/accountcredits?awg_id=DXCC&amp;ac_acct=1&amp;aw_id=DXCC-17>1880219019015M<https://lotw.arrl.org/lotwuser/accountcredits?awg_id=DXCC&amp;ac_acct=1&amp;aw_id=DXCC-15>20304207206


Now I am pursing the most elusive DX ever which is the final one before raching a personal goal. I suppose If I needed Canada for #200, that propagation to Canada would cease or the government would ban Amateur Radio in that country. In reality, I do not think #200 will take long to find. 


So here we are on Tuesday 7/7/2026, wich happens to be "Taco Tuesday", and I hunt for #200 on 20 meters in Honor of my late Elmer Paul W5DYS, and plan to have some .99 cent tacos in honor of my  late friend Paul W5PRC. 


Everyone do your best to stay cool, and have a great day!
Randy/W5ZJ

Randy,
     Always love reading your Emails!   Did my testing back in the early 80's at Little Rock.....I was so nervous I barely remember the drive and even where the testing took place at but I passed General and Advanced, code testing was like you said a big room lotsa echo and a cheap cassette player. Today I go were the DX is but my favorite is 17 , lotsa 20 meter characteristics without the ego's Debbie and I love the chase!!! I see K5UR chasing 6 meter DX this am, I need to lower the 6 meter antenna today as I'm not seeing the Europe DX that he is!
PS I was to nervous to even consider food as I drove to Little Rock and back before and after testing!

  I bet if you can find your paddle & get on the air this weekend for the
IARU contest, you will work several ATNOs on 20M?

Thanks for the tip Chuck. I'll take a look for the paddle. I'm pretty sure I left it right in front of the microphone! 200 OR BUST!

Randy,
  I bet if you can find your paddle & get on the air this weekend for the IARU contest, you will work several ATNOs on 20M?

Greed is a a powerful thing that can lead you to a path of pain and misery. A few months ago I wrote about not having 200 countries on any band. I set out to try and change that, amd finally did on 15 meters which is one of my most favorite bands.  


However, a very poweful thing called greed caused me to want 200 countries on a second band. I have always felt that 20 meters was the very best DX band. My Elmer, W5DYS Paul Dudley spent most of his time on 20 meters where he ran a Kenwood TS 820 into a National NCL2000 and then into a 2 element hygain tri-band quad. I'm sure you all remember the hygain quad...the one with the gamma matches. This was on a free standing 50 ft tower and was turned by a prop pitch motor from a WWII bomber. It seemed to me at that time, that he was one of the best operators, with the best station ever, and he did quite well on 20 meters. I later replaced his quad with a Telrex TB5EM, 5 element yagi after he suffered wind damage on the quad. 


After a year and a half as a young kid novice operating 15 meters and 40 meters I hitched a ride, with my friend Paul Coats WD5BMD ( later W5PRC), to the exam location in Memphis . I remember this trip well. We ate in at the first Taco Bell I had ever seen. I don't remember what I had, but I do remember, by drinking water, it fell within the budget of the $2 bucks I had in hand. 


The general exam was passed, as well as the CW test where I had to send and receive 13wpm in a big room full of people testing,  and I was ready to operate on 20 meters the very best DX band! What I found on 20 meters was lots of big stations, and lots of QRM that quicly overwhelmed my Hammarlund HQ129x and Johnson Viking Ranger which I had purchased with money earned from digging holes by hand....septic tank holes..at $25 each. When I finished digging a hole, it would be over my head, and I would need a ladder to climb out. I found this experience much like operating 20 meters. I was in much over my head, even after building my first amp, a single 811a in grounded grid which gave me a whopping 3db over the Ranger transmitter alone (you can do the math). I attempted to build a 20 meter quad, but lack of $$, and engineering skills hampered my attempt, and it was a failure. 


I finally left 20 meters alone and worked my DX on the easier bands. Which brings me up to the current date. I spoke with "Mr. Needmore" and he suggested that the easiest way to get to 200 countries on another band  was to bite the bullet and spend some time hunting on 20. I set JTAlert to give an audible alert on all the DXCC entities that I didn't have on 20, and was soon  rewarded with new DX spotted, sounds in the shack. One evening of operating around midnight gave me 5 new entities I did not have on 20, and I have been able to pick off an occasional new one. This morning I checked my count on lotw and it looked like this....


20M<https://lotw.arrl.org/lotwuser/accountcredits?awg_id=DXCC&amp;ac_acct=1&amp;aw_id=DXCC-20> 194 0 5 199 199 17M<https://lotw.arrl.org/lotwuser/accountcredits?awg_id=DXCC&amp;ac_acct=1&amp;aw_id=DXCC-17> 188 0 2 190 190 15M<https://lotw.arrl.org/lotwuser/accountcredits?awg_id=DXCC&amp;ac_acct=1&amp;aw_id=DXCC-15> 203 0 4 207 206 


Now I am pursing the most elusive DX ever which is the final one before raching a personal goal. I suppose If I needed Canada for #200, that propagation to Canada would cease or the government would ban Amateur Radio in that country. In reality, I do not think #200 will take long to find. 


So here we are on Tuesday 7/7/2026, wich happens to be "Taco Tuesday", and I hunt for #200 on 20 meters in Honor of my late Elmer Paul W5DYS, and plan to have some .99 cent tacos in honor of my  late friend Paul W5PRC. 


Everyone do your best to stay cool, and have a great day!

This is the IARU contest, Saturday only, mixed mode, so microphone works too. ?5907 or 59907 will make the DX you need really happy.

semiquincentennial anniversary. Cards are in the mail!

Nope grands didn't participate this time, one gone all week, and other
working summer job until College starts back. Did I say Miss Ithyca
KI5QOS made the DEAN'S List last semester? 4.0!!! woohoo!! Starts her
Junior year already this time.  Not to be left out Mr. Nicholas KI5QQH made
the honor roll award for the year! High school starts in the fall for him!

You really earned the Clean Sweep!  I had just piddled along until the last day when I realized I was close multimode.  I only took it seriously after retiring to Searcy and getting the hex beam up.  I got all with FT8 and SSB six years ago.

Hoping the weather will settle so the rig can stay on. Lots of pop up t-storms the last few days.

Subject: [ADXA] The best DX band. and other old stuff. UPDATE
Message-ID: <S2VQ3MKNQTU4.R493QQ3R6DTF@luweb01oc>

I decided to stay up late last night and try for number 200 on 20. I worked a few new ones on that band but missed Corsica, the one that I knew would QSL LOTW. I finally checked the log and found this QSO unconfirmed so paid the $6 to get the 8 contacts confirmed, but this one was all that was needed. It sure was easier than fighting the QRM that was atrocious last night!

The coolest thing I saw last night was while checking a DX log on QRZ for 6 meter contacts, Most all contacts on  the page shown was with ADXA members.


Have a great day.

     Always love reading your Emails!   Did my testing back in the early 80's at Little Rock.....I was so nervous I barely remember the drive and even where the testing took place at but I passed General and Advanced, code testing was like you said a big room lotsa echo and a cheap cassette player. Today I go were the DX is but my favorite is 17 , lotsa 20 meter characteristics without the ego's Debbie and I love the chase!!! I see K5UR chasing 6 meter DX this am, I need to lower the 6 meter antenna today as I'm not seeing the Europe DX that he is! 
PS I was to nervous to even consider food as I drove to Little Rock and back before and after testing!

Subject: [ADXA] The best DX band. and other old stuff. 
 





Greed is a a powerful thing that can lead you to a path of pain and misery. A few months ago I wrote about not having 200 countries on any band. I set out to try and change that, amd finally did on 15 meters which is one of my most favorite bands.  


However, a very poweful thing called greed caused me to want 200 countries on a second band. I have always felt that 20 meters was the very best DX band. My Elmer, W5DYS Paul Dudley spent most of his time on 20 meters where he ran a Kenwood TS 820 into a National NCL2000 and then into a 2 element hygain tri-band quad. I'm sure you all remember the hygain quad...the one with the gamma matches. This was on a free standing 50 ft tower and was turned by a prop pitch motor from a WWII bomber. It seemed to me at that time, that he was one of the best operators, with the best station ever, and he did quite well on 20 meters. I later replaced his quad with a Telrex TB5EM, 5 element yagi after he suffered wind damage on the quad. 


After a year and a half as a young kid novice operating 15 meters and 40 meters I hitched a ride, with my friend Paul Coats WD5BMD ( later W5PRC), to the exam location in Memphis . I remember this trip well. We ate in at the first Taco Bell I had ever seen. I don't remember what I had, but I do remember, by drinking water, it fell within the budget of the $2 bucks I had in hand. 


The general exam was passed, as well as the CW test where I had to send and receive 13wpm in a big room full of people testing,  and I was ready to operate on 20 meters the very best DX band! What I found on 20 meters was lots of big stations, and lots of QRM that quicly overwhelmed my Hammarlund HQ129x and Johnson Viking Ranger which I had purchased with money earned from digging holes by hand....septic tank holes..at $25 each. When I finished digging a hole, it would be over my head, and I would need a ladder to climb out. I found this experience much like operating 20 meters. I was in much over my head, even after building my first amp, a single 811a in grounded grid which gave me a whopping 3db over the Ranger transmitter alone (you can do the math). I attempted to build a 20 meter quad, but lack of $$, and engineering skills hampered my attempt, and it was a failure. 


I finally left 20 meters alone and worked my DX on the easier bands. Which brings me up to the current date. I spoke with "Mr. Needmore" and he suggested that the easiest way to get to 200 countries on another band  was to bite the bullet and spend some time hunting on 20. I set JTAlert to give an audible alert on all the DXCC entities that I didn't have on 20, and was soon  rewarded with new DX spotted, sounds in the shack. One evening of operating around midnight gave me 5 new entities I did not have on 20, and I have been able to pick off an occasional new one. This morning I checked my count on lotw and it looked like this....


20M<https://lotw.arrl.org/lotwuser/accountcredits?awg_id=DXCC&amp;ac_acct=1&amp;aw_id=DXCC-20> 194 0 5 199 199 17M<https://lotw.arrl.org/lotwuser/accountcredits?awg_id=DXCC&amp;ac_acct=1&amp;aw_id=DXCC-17> 188 0 2 190 190 15M<https://lotw.arrl.org/lotwuser/accountcredits?awg_id=DXCC&amp;ac_acct=1&amp;aw_id=DXCC-15> 203 0 4 207 206 


Now I am pursing the most elusive DX ever which is the final one before raching a personal goal. I suppose If I needed Canada for #200, that propagation to Canada would cease or the government would ban Amateur Radio in that country. In reality, I do not think #200 will take long to find. 


So here we are on Tuesday 7/7/2026, wich happens to be "Taco Tuesday", and I hunt for #200 on 20 meters in Honor of my late Elmer Paul W5DYS, and plan to have some .99 cent tacos in honor of my  late friend Paul W5PRC. 


Everyone do your best to stay cool, and have a great day!
Randy/W5ZJ

	Championship
Message-ID: <006201dd0fb5$5b9e9680$12dbc380$@w5zn.org>

Greetings ADXA Folks,

 

As has been noted in a couple of previous posts, this weekend is the IARU HF
World Championship contest that begins at 1200 UTC Saturday (7:00 AM local
time Saturday morning) and runs for 24 hours, ending Sunday morning at 1159
UTC (6:59 AM local time). The exchange is your ITU Zone (NOT CQ Zone) or the
abbreviation for the IARU member society's headquarters station. W1AW will
send "ARRL" and you will hear other stations with callsigns such as "DA0HQ",
the German society that will send "DARC". You will also hear NU1AW/0, the
IARU HQ station callsign being operated this year from K0IR's station in
Minnesota. The report they will send is "IARU". Additionally, you will also
hear exchanges such as "AC" for a member of the IARU Administrative Council
or R1, R2, or R3 for an IARU regional representative. If you're not actively
participating in the contest but just want to pick up a few new ones on a
band or mode then the exchange won't be of importance to you other than you
need to send your ITU zone, which is Zone 7 here in Arkansas. As IARU
Secretary and a member of the Administrative Council I will be sending "AC"
as my exchange and it is a multiplier!

 

This is a dual mode contest so stations will be active on phone and CW
during this period.

 

A joint event this year is the World Radiosport Team Championship (
<https://wrtc.info/> WRTC), informally known as the "Olympics" of amateur
radio. It is held every four years during the IARU contest and competing
teams must qualify in the previous years to earn a slot in the competition.
This year there are 50 teams from all over the world competing from
locations in  <https://www.wrtc2026.org/> England. Arkansas and ADXA folks
N5DX and K5GO have been past competitors who have qualified. The WRTC
stations will be using select 1x1 callsigns, assigned by the WRTC committee,
and those callsigns won't be known or revealed to the teams until just prior
to the start of the event.

 

The IARU HF World Championship is held annually on the second full weekend
of July event was establish to highlight the International Amateur Radio
Union (IARU) and its member societies. The IARU is the worldwide federation
of national amateur radio organizations, such as ARRL, RSGB, DARC, etc. Its
membership consists of more than 160 member-societies in as many countries
and separate territories and represents amateur radio on the international
level at the International Telecommunications Union (ITU) and World
Radiocommunications Conference (WRC).

In my previous email today I noted the WRTC teams would be using 1x1 callsigns. Sometimes that is correct, sometimes not but it is always an abbreviated callsign. The 50 teams competing this year will be using the callsigns noted below, just forwarded by Bernie W3UR.

 

Since this is an aggressively competitive event, the callsigns are designed to have the same transmission time length so not to give one team an advantage over another, even if it is a few milliseconds!

 

If you hear any of these callsigns on the air this weekend please work them, and work as many as possible.

Message-ID: <53fcfde9-651f-4ed5-967d-562c83215471@aa6kj.hopto.org>

Hi,

Apparently 5A1AL has change his QSL policy. He now wants $8 sent to his 
paypal account and list of contacts via email (his instructions). Well, 
he gladly took the $8 but no QSL or any further response :-( Has anyone 
had recent success with this guy?

Message-ID: <f50601dd11fd$98991430$c9cb3c90$@gmail.com>

Thanks to all the ADXA folks for Q's in the contest. The storms severely
impacted my effort but that's the dice you roll in radiosport.

 

I logged KM5G, N5DX (VA1EET), KI5UCZ, and K5UR. W5ZJ called me on 15 meters
but we just couldn't make it, but I appreciate Randy's effort. If I missed
someone, apologies as that is completely on the W5ZN operator. My results
have been posted on the 3830 website.

 

I've completely rearranged the station operating position and this was the
first contest effort for this layout. It is more efficient and less
cumbersome to operate the station. The tower with the 40-meter Yagis has
been removed so I was operating with a dipole on 40 meters. That didn't
impact this much at all.

 

Tomorrow we should hear the WRTC results and learn who the new team
champions are.

I worked him, no qsl, says only OQRS clublog so I guess he is holding the qsl hostage for money.

Hi,

Often DX spotting is time sensitive and our email list seems to have rather long latency at times. I am wondering if we could create signal (signal app that is) group where (those who want) could sign up. This would also require less overhead than writing emails. Any thoughts?

Message-ID: <01b501dd16fb$8784c290$968e47b0$@gmail.com>

Michael, NO6O, has provided updated DXCC Standings information.   Michael
has added 15 ATNOs to push his Mixed total to 140.  He has also added 53
band multipliers to raise his Desoto Challenge total to 421.  

 

Michael notes that he has worked 173 Mixed but only 140 confirmed at this
time.  He also reports that he stands at 134 entities on the CQ DX Marathon
(Formula 100/Single Mode-Digital) with 32 zones.  That puts his current
score at 166 and #32 in the rankings.

 

Nice progress Michael!

Michael, NO6O, has provided updated DXCC Standings information.   Michael has added 15 ATNOs to push his Mixed total to 140.  He has also added 53 band multipliers to raise his Desoto Challenge total to 421.



Michael notes that he has worked 173 Mixed but only 140 confirmed at this time.  He also reports that he stands at 134 entities on the CQ DX Marathon (Formula 100/Single Mode-Digital) with 32 zones.  That puts his current score at 166 and #32 in the rankings.
