CQ WW WPX CONTEST CW 2020

I hope that conditions will start to improve soon. I’m tired spending high bands openings in low rates CQ. On the other hand – good opportunity to train SO2R. I see, that it was good decision to run 20m (15m) and S/P on 40m of 2/6 point QSOs on R2.
Conditions were still nothing special. 10m opened, but almost 100% EU, 15m a bit better. No any solid DX opening on 20m, high number of QSOs at the boundary of audibility a lot of repeatings. I enjoyed especially 40m as my the main band. 2/6 point QSOs are visible on points-per-QSO average (2,53). Still low number of mults. But at the end of the day – my the best total WPX CW score ever.
I made some station improvements, which solved some minor problems, but my ACOM is starting to have more and more serious troubles, that bother me a lot. Time to pack it and send to general repair. Also R2 antennas project + R2 PA (still of 100W at R2) are just started.
Amazing results from guys from top ops category. Corona is moving a lot of top operators from multi to single categories. Especially SO AB HP unassisted is full of them and operating from megastations.
 
Thanks to all, who call me (sorry, I didn’t read all of you).
