WW VHF FT8 Contest

My first FT8 contest and the first contest on 50 MHz.

Helmut, DF7EE, had asked me to participate in this contest to earn a few points for the RRDXA.

I have only a QSO map avalable till now. Have to wait for the results fron the contest server.

Here is the map:

IOTA Contest

Also only few QSO´S:

Band QSOs
14         2
21       20
28       11
Total  33

Score : 6.336

As usual, here is the map showing the QSOs:

Something must have gone wrong when the map was created because I didn’t have any QSO to the Central Pacific.

WAE CW Contest

The most recent in a series of smaller contests held recently was the WAE Contest. Unfortunately, due to other commitments, I didn’t have time to participate on Saturday, and on Sunday the conditions were quite poor. As a result, I was only able to make a few contacts.

Band  QSOs
14       16
21         4
Total  20

Score : 520

QSO map:

The map was created with https://qsomap.cqgma.org/ADIF_to_Karte.php and the text was partly translated with Deepl. DeepL translates the text much better than I could, even though I like to think I have a pretty good skills in English.
