[NCARC] ARRL DX SSB Contest starts today at 5PM!

[W7RF Dan]

Time to put the Baofeng down for some REAL radio operating.
No, I'm not talking about the sheer excitement of having your computer 
communicate with some other computer while you make coffee (FT-8).
I'm talking about hands-on operating SSB on HF and DX that actually 
WANTS to work YOU!
ARRL DX SSB starts TODAY March 6 at 5:00PM local time to Sunday March 8 
at 4:59PM local time on 160-80-40-20-15-10M SSB.

Here is the contest calendar I use - https://www.contestcalendar.com/

I also use VOACAP for propagation predictions to know when / what band 
for a given country or area.

Also see https://www.voacap.com/

And for current DX-pedition predictions see - https://www.voacap.com/dx/
Put your grid in the top box (DN70) and click RUN!

I use DXWATCH for my "menu" of who is on what frequency
https://www.dxwatch.com/

If you log in to DXWATCH, it will know where you are and then give you 
SR/SS and beam headings to point your G5RV or attic dipole (;

For DX NEWS, use your search engine and type "dx news", lots to choose 
from there.

OK, enough tools for you, I would hate to have too much competition!

GET ON THE AIR!
