All,

as of today, I am off the air in the U.S. because we are relocating
back to DL later this month. Contest QSOs with K3ZO and K1ZZ concluded
my six year presence on the air as KK8I yesterday.

It has been a great ride and I would like to thank the U.S. contest
community for all the fun and camaraderie, both on and off the air. I
am grateful for the hospitality of the contesters in the region,
namely K8CC, K3LR, KT8X, W1SKU and K8AZ who invited me to operate
individually or with a team from their fine stations which are way
superior to my 100W / G5RV approach at home. Thanks as well to K8BB
and K8CC for fun mobile operations and to the teams of W8TNO and K8EPV
for great Field Day experiences.

I missed quite a bit of the American contest culture, namely
Sweepstakes and Sprint, but then there is only so much you can do in
parallel to the real world obligations.

I am leaving the U.S. with fond memories, some 'wood' for the German
shack wall and, most importantly, the many friendships that I have
made here.

Cuagn from DL!

73! Uli, KK8I, reverting back to DL2HBX

P.S.: I tried to send this via the CQ Contest Reflector during the day
but it does not seem to have worked. My apologies if you are receiving
this message twice.
