WQ6X Wangles 2 Speech & 5 Radiosport ConTesTs

For 2o26, the 2nd weekend in March brought us its near-annual cluster of early March radiosport
contests, front-ended this year by a Toastmasters Alameda Area Speech and Table Topic contest. 
I was representing my club - the Alameda Tongue Twisters (A-T-T).

Prior to the drive to Union City Public Library, I pointed the 10-meter yagi-stacks to ~120-degrees
(S. America) and began operations in the SA-10 South American 10-meter contest.  To make things
easier, the morning run was made on Cw.  Running QRP, the yagi-stacks were rotated between 105
and 141 degrees, depending on whether the stations in Argentina (LT/LU) @141-degrees or Curacao (PJ2) @104-degrees.

For the International Speech contest event, I had been rehearsing delivery all week up until Friday evening.  As I point out in the 6 Ps of contesting ([CLICK HERE] to review that), successfully contesting involves: PRACTICE, PRACTICE, PRACTICE.

By noontime, Toastmasters contest results found me with a 2nd-place in the Table Topics contest
and a 1st-Place in the International Speech contest. (In 2-weeks I will compete at the Division-level
for the speech contest to be held in Fremont California.)

After the Toastmasters GiG I returned to my office to add Ssb QSOs to the SA-10 contest log before the band dropped out (in my mind) prematurely.  At that point the tripe was made to W7AYT's QTH to continue the remote run, taking advantage of all the audio filters enabling Stereo-Cw and Stereo-Ssb operation.

By the time things were ready to go in Concord,
10-meters had already closed for the day. 
For the West coast that was the end of the SA-10 contest (which officially ended @ 12;00z - 5am Sunday).  With pre-setup for RTTY, I missed
out on the 4-hour RTTY Sprint contest GiG. 
Focusing on the state QSO parties eventually
settling in one the Stew Perry (SP-160) contest.

The 160-meter TRI-Square wire array @WA6TQT recently had the broken phasing cables repaired
with the hope of returning "normal" operation(s)
to the "Top Band" activities in Anza. 

Until the actual performance is confirmed, the decision was to forgo running QRP and run ~90-watts for this GiG.  What is important is simply being there and submitting a log to enable further WQ6X callsign recognition.

Sunday morning, we got a new GiG - the Wisconsin QSO Party (WIQP).  Unfortunately, similar to the IDQP and OKQP GiGs this year, turnout was almost non-existent - Bummer Dewd.  Bottomline with all of these QSO parties, at least I can say that I played in their event.

What about YOU?

DiD YOU play in any of the above events?
