Seems to be a good choice Hartmut.
For single band entries, don't forget than you can also do contact on other
bands (if you have a so2r setup you will not loose time to give some points 😉😉😉)
By the way, I will be LP

Hi Dimitri, hi everybody now in english. my biggest problem is to keep a
maximum time. I think a 20m singleband participation should be a good
compromise between QSO numbers and rest time. Right now 20m closes between
roughly 0 - 5 utc. Consequently I have some hours to sleep w/o too much to
miss. I have to realize against the younger hams I have no chance. But I will
see what happens. Maybe a couple of cans of "red bull" could be helpful. 73

Personally I will use TM3Z in the Single Op. all bands assisted category. My
goal is to operate 44 hours (hope to have rested enough before the contest). I
think that for someone who has the opportunity to use a beam 2 elts (or more)
on 40m or a four square on 80m or 40m (feel free to ask to a "performing
contest station" not active in this contest even if you don't know personnaly
the operator, you may be surprised) and who's ready to make at least a 35 hours
effort, it is THE ideal year to break a single band record on 40 or 80 m
whether HP or LP. Choosing the most situable category according to its
equipment or its capacities will make 50% of your final result. 15 and 10m will
be surely quite (even with NA on 15m) but keep an eye on these bands, a good
opening is still possible (keep a "psk reporter" window always open to check
level of FT8 reports on 10m : https://pskreporter.info/pskmap.html , selecting ;
ALL or RTTY mode reports must be used only by assisted categories...) 15 m can
produce West NA opening at 20-21.00z right now 😉 Hartmut, I think (or hope)
that RTTY operators are still there for the contests and it's also possible
that we'll have more operators now because many more people have now interfaced
their tranceiver for FT8 so they are now able to do RTTY (at least during event
such as CQWW) 😉 let's hope... PS : if some of you are in FT8, WSJT-X or similar
mailing lists, promote CQ WW RTTY, it's an opportunity to operators who have
newly interfaced their tranceiver for this new mode to discover how easy, funny
and quick it is to do RTTY QSO. So good luck to each of you and CU in the
contest 73 de Dimitri F4DSK/TM3Z Envoyé depuis mon appareil mobile Samsung. -
