CQ WW DX Contest CW 2025

I worked 15m single band (high power, unassisted); about 30 hours. Some issues during the contest:

  • 5 hour power outage on Sunday morning. Of course, there was a great EU opening during that time! G E N E R A T O R next time…
  • hamlib/rigctld keying problems that required frequent restarting of both not1mm and rigctld. Switching to cwdaemon for the next contest.
  • It was cold in the shack! I need to work on the insulation!

But still the contest went much better than last year (… new antennas …): 1344 QSOs, 122 countries, and 35 zones.
