Such is the WPX RTTY 2020 turned out by the RW0A team. Not done 20-25 QSOs didn’t solve anything. Which, however, was no longer very important. Even the log was not possible to immediately copy. 40 minutes before the end of the electricity turned off. Yes, and the passage was some not intelligible. On the second evening, too, did not bring QSOs with NA at 80m. The rate fluctuated at the level of 25-50 QSO / hour with a peak of 70 QSO / hour at 9UTC, when the passage at 20m opened well and even managed to work a little second place S & P.

The second day, as always, was less productive. Morning passage did not bring any QSO from NA, although the entire bandmap was filled with red spots from USA. The first day we ended at around 1,700 QSO and 500-odd QSOs behind our 2018 result. At 80m, they were already slowly calling on the RUN with a maximum rate of 35 QSO / hour.įor dinner, as usual, Valery RZ0AT prepared a very delicious soup: For forty meters there was a orderly flow of QSO with South/East Asia. However, relations with northern Europe and the EU RUS gradually began to flow. In the eastern direction, 80m practically did not open. Although it was confidently heard on bever 340 degrees N0NI and K9CT. Attempts to take something from NA to 80m at sunset did not bring success. The rate fell and a slow but sure lag behind ours 2018 graphics. I wanted to make a “round” number of connections. RW0A RA0AM on 20m in CQ WW WPX RTTY Contest 2020.įiftin was cleaned to the last. RW0A CQ WW WPX RTTY 2020 Contest Team RC0AK, R0ACG, RA0AM, RZ0AT, RG0A. Connections at 15m seem especially no one has. Judging by the numbers on the air, the past leader 9A1A is again on the “Favorite horse”, well, HG1S is on the “Second horse” in these jumps :-) The familiar callsigns KA4RRU, and NR6M, which are usually somewhere near us according to the results, also flash on spots. Which was overcome at the end of the fifth and sixth hours. We are going with a slight lag in the schedule from 2018.

For eighty meters, they worked exactly three hours, while at least somehow answered. We made a few QSOs with them forty meters and all. There were practically no stations from NA. The propagation of Fiftin with the same set of prefixes from Southeast Asia was ajar. Propagation on 20m opened east from the very beginning of the contest. They answered S & P almost immediately, but they called RUN very badly. Skimmers showed quite high levels of our signal. They began to work during three signals simultaneously at 80m, 40, 20m. Usually we prepare for the contest two jobs for one band according to the number of band on which there is simultaneously propagation. We use all this equipment to achieve results in contests. Currently, RW0A has seven operator sites connected to 18 transmitting antennas mounted on 9 masts with a height of 16 to 50 m., Five receiving antennas, as well as nine power amplifiers. In 2020, they also decided to participate in the unlimited subgroup. Our constant competitors are 9A1A, NR4M, HG1S, YL2W. In particular, in recent years we have occupied the following places in the world: 2010 -3 place, 2012 - 2 place, 2013 - 3 place, 2016 -3 place (new record of Asia), 2017 - 4th place, 2018 -3rd place. The rules of the contest and the geographical location, and most importantly the setup of the radio station, allow us to occupy worthy places in the results of this contest almost every year.
