Joining the IARU HF World Championship 2009
From July 11 to 12 there will be the IARU HF World Championship 2009 Contest. I will join the Chaoswelle-Crew at our contest-location DF0AT in Büren, Westphalia, JO41GN.
Unfortunately I never took part in a contest and I guess I have to learn what to say and how the points are given. But this time I want to try an hour or two at the microphone. As we are not that many operators this time, any help should back up the team.
We will have a full weekend of camping, cooking and I’m looking forward meeting my Chaoswelle-mates again. When you are distributed all over Europe and don’t have a weekly meeting in a kind of club room, events and private visits are the only possibilty to see each other.
You will see, contesting is fun. I operated several times from DF0WF/p in some 2m contests. I clearly miss the feeling to have a mic or a paddle in my hands and get some rare stations. It’s now nearly one year that I hadn’t any contact on the bands and I’m curious coming back from LA and taking my rig with me to Dresden. 😉
So 73s de Jens, LA/DK2AB
PS: don’t forget to work LA 😉
