ARRL SSB DX Contest

It's that time of year again, the ARRL SSB DX Contest is coming up this weekend.  While I am no longer a serious contester, I will be spending a few hours in the chair to 'hunt & pounce' a few select countries I am still looking for.

This weekend, along with the CQ WW DX Contest on the last weekend in March, are great opportunities to work some fantastic DX.  The bands will ....or should be....full of DX signals, normally you can work 100+ countries with no problem.

Now, the downside to this is the fact that the propagation has been garbage for the past 3 weeks, so let's hope it decides to propagate correctly this coming weekend for us.

The Rules for this event can be found HERE.
