I kicked off the CQ WPX contest aiming for Sweden’s top Single-Operator High-Power (SOHP) spot in one of my favorite events. With limited antennas and weaker propagation in the forecast, I knew that record results were unlikely. With my Lannabo 80/160 m vertical on the ground I decided to try an end-fed wire antenna for 160
Got a fun little award from the D4C team, I believe the first award I’ve earned for working only five contacts. Anyway, a smart little “marketing” move that will make D4C a few more points in the future. Now you wonder how you can get your D4Caward? Continue reading and I show you how.
My thanks to the team of 3B8M for putting a smile on my face when I received this little award yesterday! Every time I manage to work someone on all bands in a major contest I see it as a small achievement.
Congratulations Niko, DD1MAT, to the new SM record secured in CQ WPX earlier this year! Niko was determined to post the highest ever achieved score in Sweden on 80 meter. Being well prepared and operating SE0X with precision, Niko achieved this goal and the whole SE0X team congratulates him on a well executed contest effort
Results are out and the High Power Single Band 160 meter SM record was broken by SE0X in CQWW CW 2018. In addition SE0X ranked #4 in Europe and #7 World.
CQ160 SSB is always a struggle in QRM. It really puts your filters and patience to the test, no surprise there. My plan was to break the old SM record and to break-in a new hardware controller called the Stream Deck. But first…
2018 has been a rather slow year at SE0X with limited activity due to family and work commitments. Therefor it feels great that the few efforts are paying off! The results of CQ-160 and CQ-WPX brought the excitement levels up right in time for the contest season.
This morning a nice surprise appeared in the mail. It seems like I had the highest combined CW + SSB score in SOAB HP Unassisted in the Scandinavian Activity Contest (SAC). Not an official category, but very nice plack för the wall. Thanks to the sponsor SM3EVR Tord Julander!
