I guess it doesn't really count as DX but are there certain frequencies on the various bands where people congregate to work on things like WAS? I have been out of ham radio for a couple of decades but have once again been bitten by the bug and I set up a couple of HF rigs and some simple antennae. I thought WAS might be a good target to start with. (I did work Cuba the other night and was amazed that even with my modest setup he heard me ont he first call!!) bill KB3YV -- A couple of WAS nets THE TRIPLE H NET ASSOCIATION http://www.hhhnet.net/index.html 3905 Century Club Net http://www.3905ccn.com/ DX nets at URL: http://ac6v.com/nets.htm#DXN But some DXers prefer to not work nets and find the contacts themselves - remain pure as it were. Lamont 5 BAND WAS, WAS 17M, WAS CW, WAS QRP 49 STATES WORKED ON 12M AND 6M I would prefer to avoid nets. I just thought there might have been an unofficial place where people listened for other people working on WAS. bill KB3YV -- Bill Gunshannon | de-moc-ra-cy (di mok' ra see) n.

Try the November Sweepstakes, Field Day, North American QSO Party, various state QSO parties, and so on. Dee, N8UZE |
