We never even dreamed about such score. This one goes down to history. Weekend
of a lifetime for sure. Making 5000 Qs on 15/20 from ES is syrreal. The new big
15m array really proved itself once again. Nearly 900 JAs on one band is unheard
of. In reality none of the bands had perfect conditions. High bands were still
closed the second night and in the last evening only opened again 1-2 hours
before the end. But all in all the conditions were superb. Over 100 US on 160
in SSB is also fantastic. Matching D4C QSO count from up here is incredible.
10m opening to zone 1 in the last few hours of the contest was really a perfect
cherry on the cake. Simply heaven.

We set DR1A EU record as our target and were very delighted to take an early
lead. In reality it appeared that the 2011 target file was also good for real
time comparison as DR1A guys were tracking it precisely:) Congratulations for
good score to DR1A despite unfavorable propagation. I am sure we are going to
have a very exciting battle in CW part again!

My special thanks goes to:

– Tonu, ES2DW, for feeding again the huge crowd of crazy contesters.
– Oleg, YL3DW, who spent most of the contest repairing failed equipment on the
fly and kept us going. There is nothing he can’t fix!
– Valeri, ES5QA, for making each kind of cables, adapters etc continuously for
2-3 days before the contest.
– Rein, ES5RW, who boldly volunteered to climb nearly to the top of the 70
meter big tower late Friday before the contest to fix broken 80m antenna and
while doing it increasing his personal climbing height record from 20 meters to
50 meters.
– Ranko, 4O3A, for having provided us full sets of HP band pass filters and
triplexers. Wihtout those MM operation would have been impossible. And again
filters/triplexers performed flawlessly triplexers calmly handling the 3 RUN
stations transmitting at the same time for 48 hours.
– Toivo, ES2RR, for providing the bottle of Dom Perignon to celebrate 40
million:)

CU in CW! May the 27 day cycle work again!!

Good USA propagation still avoids me, but seems that condx are improving. Meanwhile I have got some excellent Venezuela/Colombia stations. Last week’s files are unlistened, partially I’ve got through the 20th of October files. That night was quite interesting although propagation was to same are than the most of Autumn (VEN/CLM/PTR).

South America

1390 12.10. 0231- VEN: YVZA R Fé y Alegría, Caracas. Many other here too, WEGP and some signals below it. Eg. [1389.986] then 2 Hz above Alegria probably another (not yet to ID for me) VEN. TIK

It’s been a bit quiet with QSLs lately. The patch of reports I sent one month ago produced low ratio of verifications. Lately I have been busy with the unlistened files. But some confirmations have arrived:

570. KTCN Minneapolis MN 1130 kHz

This was heard in September. Jess Meyer (N0QKH), Engineering & IT Director replied with email and MP3-studioclip of same time I sent to the station.

571. CMKP Radio Progreso, San Germán 900 kHz

This is a regular station when the propagation is more to Cuba than to South America. Station replied via Facebook.

572. CMDC Radio Reloj, Santa Clara 570 kHz

Aydenis Ortega Che, subdirectora replied quickly by email.

573. HJNT Radio Huellas, Cali 1470 kHz

I have gone through more files of September. The 23th had one of the best CLM/VEN-openings I’ve had, lots of new and rare stations were heard. Condx started from Colombia after 0300Z and then turned to Venezuela peaking around 0430Z.

South America

620 23.9. 0428- VEN: Radio Libertad 620, Cabimas . I didn’t find any loggins from Finland since 1994. I was listening to nonstopmx station which I suppose was Colmundo Cali but then at 0428 this one peaked and gave very clear and nice IDs. As this was so rare station, I sent my clip to Henrik (HK), who sanctioned it. Station slogan was “Libertad 620, la de siempre”. Now I am working on to get a QSL. TIK
630 23.9. 0428- VEN: YVKA R Nacional de Venezuela, Caracas. Not very common this one either. After BBC and Notiuno faded out, this was audible with ID: “…en Canal Informativo de Radio Nacional de Venezuela”. At local midnight big IDs and national anthem. TIK
660 23.9. 0356- CLM: R Auténtica, Cali. Not a big suprise as I heard W Radio Cali at 690. I don’t know for sure what is a callsign of Auténtica (HJJM, HJJN or HJEZ). Also at 670 had interesting accordion mx station with Rumbos. Unfortunately no IDs between songs. TIK
660 23.9. 0427- VEN: YVNA Ondas de los Medanos, Coro. Alone in the frequency. [659.997]. TIK
700 23.9. 0357- CLM: HJCX W R, Cali. Online log has only one tentative logging. Shouted between records “Doble U Radio”. In the frequency also [.993] probably Sucre and [.007] which was Popular. This is at [700.002]. TIK
920 3.10. 0359- PRG: ZP1 R Nacional de Paraguay, Asúncion. After aurora borealis the band was quite silent. In the upper band few common stations from Peru and then this. This is the second time this season I heard RNP. TIK

Propagation has been very good lately. I was away from home one week and I had a remote-QTH recording from the 24th till 1st of October. Unfortunately software had failed after the 26th so I missed the excellent US conditions on the 28th and 29th. After that CME hit the Earth and there was visible aurora in the Southern Finland yesterday evening but it seems that the band is recovering very quickly. All day today Tromso K-index has been 0.

Again I have bolded interesting (for me) stations.

1290 21.9. 0324-0403 USA: WJNO West Palm Beach FL. Also some TLK-stn. A bit earlier on 1320 also FL, because stn was using creole French. And Nothing Compare 2U USA stn on 1340 is most likely WROD. Good FL peak but no luck with IDs. TIK
1440 18.9. 0102- USA: WRED Westbrook ME. “The Jab” WEEI Red Sox Radio Network. TIK

Central America

[1409.998] has someone with disturbed audio. HOH700 Radio Mensabé Las Tablas has heard with the bad audio but this one is sending talk programmes. Also hrd it on the 26th. TIK
