That's an interesting mail, Jim. It regularly occurs to me that bad pileup
behaviour seems to be statistically worse when there's propagation from the
DXpedition to a certain part of Southern Europe (unfortunately about 23.9 hours
per day all bands).
I'm not suggesting that *all* people

Great words of wisdom Wayne that I wish more Dx Pedition operators would
follow. By the numbers is great if your in 1 land - not so great for the
guy in 0 (zero) land. Many times by the time the DX
Agreed...by the numbers is great, if you take 5 min of 1's , 5, of 2's , etc.
That rarely happens, and indeed it sucks if you're not in 1 or 2 land.
That however is what makes the hunt so interesting...and frustrating sometimes!

I believe 3Y0PI and a few others, by trying to follow the propagation paths,
would work USA in the order 1-2-3-4-8-9-0-5-7-6. Seemed pretty successful

There have been operations especially from the Pacific that completely
ignored propagation. They'd have paths to USA and JA at the
I Mostly agree,
BUT best way to eliminate most of the heavy pile-up problems is to SPREAD it
larger as possible
i.e. CW - TX on .025 RX UP - higher as possible usse the jump lsn .032
then .044 then 059 back etc.
its verry bad when DX usse so called DRIVE move step by step UP

To make numbers work, use a random starting number, 0-9
That however is what makes the hunt so
What is the best way to do by the numbers? x minutes for each number
or until no response? x QSOs for each number or until no response? Or?
