The CQ World Wide Contest was a lot of fun this weekend. I was only able to be on during the day Saturday and Sunday. I spent most of my time on 10 meters and made over 200 QSO's for 60 countries on that band. The other 3 bands (15, 20 and 40) were good for roughly another 100 contacts.
I worked several ATNO countries on 10m and by Sunday evening already had Liechtenstein and Isle of Man show as confirmed in LOTW. By this morning I had several other band fills confirmed on 10m for countries that I have previously confirmed on other bands.
10 meters was in good shape and there was enough activity that I logged a bunch of QSO's above 29.000.
Running with no amplifier and just a dipole meant that I missed some that I could hear like Andora, but the challenge was a lot of fun.
