[TVARC] Contest

[William De Miranda]

Well, I think I did ok this weekend as a responder in the DX contest. I made 44 contacts spending a couple of hours each, Saturday and today. About half of those were DX. All were 20M SSB Phone.
As a nice bonus I made 2 first time ever new DX entity contacts. One was Morocco (CN3A) and the other Bermuda (VP9I).
The band sure was crowded with everyone talking on top of each other. The hardest part was deciphering the call signs. The Contester should know that if I cannot copy his call, because he is talking too fast, or he is using non-standard phonetics, (or his accent is thicker than mine), I will not respond, and he loses a contact.
So much for my words of wisdom.
