I'd like to announce my plans
to work from Sept-Iles (Quebec) from July 8 to July 12, 2009 by using callsign VE2EKA.
That's zone 2 in the CQ list and ITU zone 9. VHF grid - FO60te. I will be active mostly CW on all bands 160-6. The main target is to present zone 2 mostly on 160-80-40. One 320 meters Beverage antenna to EU as well as effective verticals are going to be installed there.
VE2EKA is going to be active during IARU HF World Championships contest on July 11, 2009 as SOAB CW Only High Power.
QSL via VA2WDQ.

RTTY is becoming very popular on the HF bands. Many hams, both old timers and new comers, have gotten RTTY working and made QSOs. Now they are trying RTTY contesting. We, and other RTTY contesters, have noticed that some RTTY new comers are unaware of efficient contest exchanges or have picked up a few bad habits. After each RTTY contest there are email discussions about ineffective (i.e. time consuming) exchanges.
