If you want to work more DX than you ever thought possible:
1. Learn enough CW to do basic exchanges.
Your speed and proficiency will increase dramatically by just doing it.
2. Get on 30 meters. Other countries have not abandoned CW
like the USA has. You will work DX after DX station.
You can even call CQ with QRP power and work stations worldwide.
No need to wait for contests with their special rules and pileups.

Hi
Just thought I'd drop a note about the Elecraft CW decoder. I've been on
the air for a number of hours hunting new DXCC's with the K3's built in CW
decoder. This was my first time using CW, I only know the letters CQ 5NN
TU and that's it! ( OK E also) Never been on CW before so all DXCC's were
'new'.
Armed with that and a spotting program I racked up 50 new dxccs from
around the world. This was a new experience and introduced me to CW. Now I
want to learn it so the next time the contest comes around I'll enjoy it
that much more. Was a blast.
