CQ WW RTTY Contest 2008 : next time will be better

START-OF-LOG: 2.0
ARRL-SECTION: DX
CALLSIGN: YB2ECG
CATEGORY: SINGLE-OP ALL LOW RTTY
CLAIMED-SCORE: 10370

Due to Iedul Mubarak holiday I could not join on the whole contest periode. Actually I was well prepared to join this great contest, though got some problem with MixW, it can not decode any rtty signal so I must reinstall it and re-run, and composed the new macro and it solved.
20m as I predicted was good and get some opportunity working on 15m.

Average rate: 4.3 QSOs/hour
QSO YB OC DX Pts DXCC CQ States

20m 97 0 4 93 287 15 9 0
15m 7 0 3 4 18 5 5 0
Total 104 0 7 97 305 20 14 0
Score: 305*34 = 10370 points
.


Comparing last year result it looks much worse but stil got the fun. Log consists a lot of JA's, thanks OMs.

Hope next year will be better.

Dear Tomas, sorry could not work with you on CQ WW. I can not join the whole contest periode due to Ied Mubarak holiday preparation.
See you on the band soon.

No problem Jon, I hope you had good times during holidays ! We also did not participate whole contest. We went for local ham meeting near our QTH. I am looking forward to hear from you on the band. Tomas
