I'm running QRP in the contest and found
for some reason I can't hear much DX as
other years. Lots of stateside VE
contacts but just not much else from my
QTH. I've only been able to make three 5
point Qs and sure QRP is big in that but I
can't hear them this year using my same
equipment

Hi guys
We have a new class of station this year, few but some European stations
running contest from remote station in US using European call sign, not
W4/ or W7/xxx not even xxx/W4.
Today with the RBN it is easy to confirm where the station is transmitting,
you just need to search

Not sure what happened on your end, but I had you in the log, Jim. Sure,
it was a struggle, but got your call and exchange fine after plenty of
repeats. Guess we'll try again this morning!
Back to it.
