BARTG Sprint RTTY Contest

In the weekend of 23-24 Januar i was active during the BARTG Sprint RTTY Contest.
This is a 24 hour contest,from saturday 12 utc till sunday 12 utc.

I started at 12 utc at the 20M band.Propagation looked ok.
I got 40 qso's logged in the first hour.Also a few stations from NA already.
At 1447 i took a break to walk with my Husky's.At this time i got 94 qso's logged.
Also LX1EA was logged,always nice but difficult for me to get LX.


At 1538 back at the radio.
Very big suprise to see and work FR5GS.He was calling CQ when i worked him...after that the mess came to his freq.
At 17:50 i had a diner break...160 qso's logged now.I was already on 40M,as the 20M band closed around 17:30.


I was active till 23:40 UTC.Did work alot of EU and also some NA stations.
The next morning i did start again at 7:40 UTC.First looked on 40M again.P40YL was very strong and i could work her as well.


At the end i had 327 QSO's logged...something i was happy with.
Total points given from MixW where 115.758.
Ofcourse this will be lower after the crosschecking of the logs.Not everyone sends in their logs and also possibe that something went wrong with the numbers given.

  1. Hallo Bernard, heb wel wat meegedaan aan de RTTY contesten. Maar wegens tijdgebrek niet veel QSO's gemaakt. Hoop de PACC redelijk ongestoord te kunnen doen. Probeer QRV te zijn via ICQ...
