[PVRCNC] Two-fer, CQWW SOAB(A) LP es ARRL160 SOAB

[kazeringue--- via PVRCNC]

Had a bit of fun for CQWW. Not much time, so all manual S&P was the 
plan. The first 10 q's in the log look like:
TU, zone 14
TU, zone 14
TU, zone 33
QRZ?, zone 14
TU, zone 14

After getting my fill of the "All Station Callsigns are TU WW", I 
decided to use the spots just so I could pretend the stations I was 
logging had actual callsigns.  ;)

Could actually hear the Guam(loud), Wake Island(good copy) and 
Samoan(loud enough) stations, but not break pileups of 6 and 7 land. 
Worked a few ZL and JA's on both 10m and 15m, something that is uncommon 
on the wires as-they-exist at the worked-only-TU QTH.    The JA's mostly 
could not hear me(normal), but at least they have actual callsigns. So 
had fun on the high bands stalking unworkable DX pile-ups in between 
shoveling the five or six tons of leaves out of the back yard(for the 
third time).  [The dark side of numerous deciduous biological antenna 
support structures, a plethora of snake hiding leaf fall.  Just one 
copperhead this year, down 50% from 2013.]

Expected more time for ARRL 160, but that didn't pan out.  Had a nice 
run though, cuz the three hours I claimed was more like a 50 minute run 
for 70 Q's and several 5 minute S&P sessions for the other handful.

73 de TU, zone 5

TU, QRZ?

TU......TU.....?
