BLAST's from the PAST 2.0: WQ6X in ARRL DX Contests

While doing some research for another research project researching some of my favorite
48-Hour radiosport contests, the ARRL DX GiGs of course come to mind.  Over 5.5 years ago,
I wrote a Blog looking at the ARRL DX GiGs all the way back to 2013.  ([CLICK HERE] to read it.  Today, it occurred to me that a LoT has happened in the radiosport world along these lines, encouraging me into this current research project.  LooKing back in the WQ6X contest Blog bibliography, since 2018, there have been the following ARRL DX Contest events:

  • [X] - (2019) NX6T Nixes ARRL Dx Left Coast Competition
  • [X] - (2019) ARRL Dx Ssb GiG: the contest RTTY Ruined
  • [X] - (2020) WQ6X Wanders Thru another ARRL Dx Contest
  • [X] - (2020) WQ6X Blast from the Past: ARRL Dx Phone Contest
  • [X] - (2020) WQ6X joins NX6T Dual-OP'ing another ad-HOC ARRL Dx Ssb GiG
  • [X] - (2021) WQ6X Wings 1st Dual-Remote ARRL DX Cw GiG from Alameda
  • [X] - (2021) WQ6X joins NX6T remotely for another ARRL Dx Ssb GiG
  • [X] - (2022) WQ6X Dabbles in the ARRL Dx Contest
  • [X] - (2023) WQ6X Works a Wonderfully WEIRD Dx Contest











wOw! What a Wonderfully WEIRD bunch of contest operations.
What is essentially special about the ARRL (and CQ) DX contest GiGs is that they are 48-hour
affairs, offering up plenty of DX opportunities, while also allowing me to catch up on my sleep. 
With this information in place, I will be able to write a special Blog on why I love 48-hour contests.
Stay Tuned for that one.

Do YOU play around in the ARRL (or CQ) DX Contests?
What kind of wildness have YOU encountered?
