3 in 1 Contest

It's quite a late report. Last two week actually there're some contesting activity. There're TARA skirmish digital, Hollyland Contest, FeldHell sprint, EU Sprint and the local contesting on 80m Kartini contest.
A detail plan I've prepared but; man proposes the God diposes, hi hi....
Ok, here's the detail report :
  1. Hollyland DX Contest. Hollyland Contest is quiet new for me and it offers also on single mode on digital mode, so it's nice to join on this mode. RTTY and BPSK31 is preffered mode. And the report was nice; actually I've got 7Q's but it worth only 4Q's; you see that it's hard to join contest on BPSK31 segment, you've made CQ-ing for contest but the answered is just looking for rag-chew.....
  2. FeldHell Sprint; just got 2 Q's on 20m. Actually it was a nice mode on digital contesting. Seems contesting on the fax mode....
  3. EU 'the stupid' Sprint Contest. It's very nice and fun contesting, and I've longed to join this contest but unfortunately I heard no one on these activity. Sorry EU Gang's I've missed this good sprint contest.
  4. Kartini Contest, the local contest on phone 80m and also on VHF2m. I've made 3 Q's on VHF [it's so hard contesting here on VHF] and 50Q's on 80m, due to the late starting.
It's look the busiest contesting on this week end, but stil got the fun.
Sorry for sad could not join the EU Sprint.........

EA RTTY Contest 2009

Nice rtty contest also on this weekend. After last two week joining on EA PSK31 Contest now the RTTY got the turn.
Running with MixW on Windows XP and also supported with K1TTT telnet and sure DX-cluster via dxsummit.fi contesting on this mode is so fun.
Band conditions is stil poor, for my station, I could only work on two bands; 15m and 20m.
After some pausing with family matters finally could logg only 117 Q's: 106Q's on 20m and the rest 11 Q's on 15m.
Thanks for all station could be worked and thanks also some station who spot me on the DX-cluster, especially for JH7RTQ and OK2PF:
OK2PF 14098.1 YB2ECG RTTY CQ 1329 05 Apr
JH7RTQ 21083.0 YB2ECG RTTY EA 0328 05 Apr
JH7RTQ 21091.0 YB2ECG RTTY EA 0122 05 Apr
Some W, VE, HS, VR, and sure a lot of JA's could be worked. Only one and the only EA could worked on 20m, thanks for EA5EN although on the hard way.
After sending the log got a nice confirmation from URE-Robot :
