[CVCC_Members] ARRL DX CW 2017

[H. M. Motley, Jr,]

NICE JOB BOB!

Yes I had a little score (474,189).Rig broke and I was using my old Paragon.  It is not much of a contest rig. Today I picked up an OMNI SIX.  That seems to be much better than the Paragon.  My main problem was RF getting into the computer and locking it up! On 15 I could only run 35 watts but at least propagation was pretty good and I worked most I called. I'll send off my O7 tomorrow and get it fixed.  It will still be my main rig but It's nice to have a good backup. The Paragon will go up for sale. 

Sejo gave points to PVRC!  How sad and disappointing.  I am no longer a member of that group.  I told them to stick my membership up into a place where the sun don't shine!

And I also ask - Are there more ARRL DX CW scores from CVCC members.  How about "W"?  We are not real long on CW ops nor any contesters for that manner.  Will anyone do the SSB portion of the contest.  No excuses - we all can talk!

73,
