Ce contest n'est vraiment pas mon favori encore cette année. J'ai opéré les premières heures mais je suis vite passé à un autre contest ce matin. Je suis revenu après souper pour donner quelques multis. En fesant un tour de bande, j'ai entendu VE2NGH sur 40m et Louis EZD sur 80m, mon seul QSO sur 80m, je suis passé QRT après avoir saluer Louis. VE2AWR fut un de mes premiers QSO sur 10m. J'espère qu'il y en a d'autres qui se sont occupé des multis VE2.

Very enjoyable contest this year. I did some very nice runs on 80, 40, 15m. 80m was a pleasure to work Saturday night. Many people wanting VE2 - I was running quite some large pileups. Many thanks to EZD, UTC AXO, HIT, AWR for the QSO's.

Operator Category : SINGLE-OP Band : ALL Power : HIGH Mode : SSB Default Exchange : U 77 QC ARRL Section : QC Club/Team : Contest Group du Quebec Software : N1MM Logger V12.11.1 Total Time On : 20:35 (1235 mins)
Thanks to VA2WA (Victor), VE2EBK (Dany), VE2AXO (Bob) and VE2NGH (George) for the QSOs.
Victor, I was glad to work you on the first night so I didn't have to worry about QC. Nice signal here in Beauce.
Congratulation George for your Clean Sweep.
Between two big CW contests, I didn't plan to put too much energy into this contest. For the last two years I missed the first day of the phone Sweepstakes because I went to an amateur astronomy activity in Boisbriand.
Since I got my first ever Clean Sweep two weeks ago in the CW Sweepstakes I was not expecting to be able to do the same for the phone version. So my strategy was to give QC to the most stations (giving back) and work some new States on the bands where I needed them (WAS), mostly on 80m and 10m.
Surprisingly, I went short of a sweep missing only one section: SF. I remembered Claude saying: passer proche... c'est pas suffisant.
I found one SF on 40m with a good signal just half an hour before the end. I tried to break the pileup without any success. The stations that were able to work him where mostly from the midwest (from 7, 5 and 0 areas).
This year the SSB Sweepstakes was very different from its CW counterpart. The badly needed sections two weeks ago were easy this time. I worked DE twice and AK three times. VY1EI is doing a great job giving NT and I was able to work him on both Sweepstakes.
For the new Ontario sections, ONE was the most difficult to get.
One of the last american section to get was WV. I tried to work one in a big pileup without any success and one magically appeared on my last 80m "run".
Worth noting, I worked 11 QRP stations. Two were on 80m and the farthests being CO and NTX.
Since QC is a needed section for many amateurs. Its heart warming when a station tells you at the end of a QSO that it permitted him to reach a Clean Sweep.
Even if QC is "needed", on all of my runs I only got spotted on my last one on 80m and one by a fellow VE2. The majority of the stations working the Sweepstakes are UNASSISTED.
Hope to see you next weekend for the CQ WW DX CW.
Félicitation à tous pour les excellents résultats. Nous formons un beau groupe
73 de Louis, VE2EZD

Re:ARRL SS SSB 2012 - 2012/11/19 10:01Moi je peux te dire que compte tenu de tes antennes, c'est tout à fait remarquable d'atteindre ses résultats.
Jamais pensé te faire une Moxon HB pour le 20M
Ca me donne des résultats assez surprenants ici en tout cas.Jean-Pierre VA2SG - VE2SSS

Re:ARRL SS SSB 2012 - 2012/11/19 10:49Salut Jean-Pierre
Le problème c'est que je commence à remplir la cour (HI)
Quand je ne fais pas de concours j'ai ma dipole pour le 80m et la delta-loop va du 40m au 10m. Contrairement aux dipoles qui présentent des impédances "correctes" sur les harmoniques impairs (1, 3, 5,...) les "loops" sont utilisables sur tous les harmoniques (1, 2, 3,...).
Je ne veux pas me faire voler mes fouets donc je les sors et les rentre seulement pour les concours.
Pour le 20m j'ai une CVA (Compact Vertical Array) mais elle prend deux supports de 16'. On l'a utiliseé au dernier Field Day ( VE2CRB ). Elle fait du bon boulot mais je devrais l'installer topès près de la dipole de 80m.
Aussi avec mes fils j'attire moins l'attention des voisins. Bien quil doivent trouver étrange de voir pousser ces antennes le samedi matin pour ne plus les voir le lundi suivant.
Je réussi à m'amuser quand même.
73 de Louis, VE2EZD
