Fun times knocking the cobwebs out of my RTTY contesting ability today with the NAQP going on. Go ahead… hop on… hand out a few points. I’m just doing S&P. Exchange is NA: Name + (state/DC/province/country)
non-NA: Name. #radiosport
In times of low activity, I always get something that reminds me of previous activities in #hamradio .
Like winning the UBA DX SSB #hamradiocontest in my category in 2022.
The pre-special-military-operation era. When UA and UR stations filled my log at a steady pace.
Now we need stable peace...

Are there any other contests I should be trying to skim to break my own spotting records? I think these are the biggest.
CQ WW DX CW
WW Digi DX
ARRL International Digital
IARU World Championships

Wow, there’s radio sport and then there’s radio sport:

Did you know that the World Radiosport Team Championship (a.k.a WRTC) runs an annual event of WRTC branded special event stations all around the world? They're on the air all of January 2023 for amateur radio operators to make contact with. So far I've contacted 10 unique stations across the US, Portugal, Canary Islands, and Bulgaria using single side-band (voice) and morse code.

I’ve learned much of the CW in this weekend’s CQ WW DX contest is currently too fast for me. QSOs Fri & Sat and two failed attempts today resulted in 17 QSOs for QRP on 20 meters. #amateurradio

@kb8pfz Did Saturday and later also decided to do Sunday. Had a strategy and did QRP. Hard fought for QSOs. There needs to be a single band category.

Today is not the day for #QRP during the ARRL Sweepstakes (SSB) #. I feel confident about next week’s #CQDX contest as it’s CW (Morse code) and I’ll be logging contacts. #radiosport #contesting #amateurradio #hamradio
