CQ WW CW 2016

CQ Worldwide DX Contest, CW Call: LA5LJA Operator(s): LA5LJA Station: LA7TTT Class: SOSB/40 LP ASSISTED QTH: JP50 Operating Time (hrs): 17 Summary: Band QSOs Zones Countries ------------------------------ 160: 80: 40: 403 21 90 20: 15: 10: ------------------------------ Total: 403 21 90 Total Score = 56,943 Club: LA Contest Club Comments: My goal was 1000 qsos, ended up with 403... Turned on the radio att 0300z. So quiet..no North Americans??? Worked only one NA on 40 mtr this year W1KM was the only one who heard me this weekend ,no 'VE' Canadians att all... K3LR worked 1 LA Station...KC1XX worked 3 LA stations.(on 40 mtr) This says it all about the conds from Norway to NA. Conds was poor I think similar to the ssb part. Everything North of my qth 60°N was hard (impossible) to work. Frustrating to see spot from Denmark (500 km south of me) and when you go to the freq.you hear nothing... ******** NR4M say... Conds were terrible the first night and generally bad the rest of the weekend. ******** This statement is spot on..but as always CQ WW is fun..

CHEAP CABLE.

I buy this cable in Thailand  6 roll's of 1,5 mm el-cable à 100 mtr.
Very cheap/good price in Thailand compared to Norway.
Will use it for my new low-band antenna 80/160 mtr that I will put up
next year, In Norway the price of this cable is about 400 Nkr for one roll
In Thailand they wanted 100 Nkr for one roll, so easy saved 1800 Nkr.(225 $)

XU7MDC was activ in November this year.
