Re: [IRCA] Ultralighting
Hi Paul - I also tried to do what Rob Ross did, with 300 ULR logs in 30
days and even in with lots of stations around here to grab, I did not
come close. As you must know, sounds easier than it is. I did wind up
with 154 in 30 days but I never really had as much time as I would have
liked. So, I logged the 150+ stations over just a 10 hour aperiod,
which is great and I added 12 or so to the overall log, with a 90 watt
station over 800 miles away as the best for me (1600 North Dakota).
Good Luck and 73,

Hi all,
I have been watching the recent developments regarding ultralighting
with great interest and I have to say it really has got me back into the
swing of MW DX'ing.
Im wondering is there a yahoo ultralight group yet and if there is how
can I join.
Im half way through a Euro version of Rob Ross's 30 day ultralight
adventure with about 230 in the bag , its going to be hard to replicate
the magic 300!
Ive had a few 4000 mile catches but the big one got away - a tentative
catch of Taiwan on 1557 was very probably CRI from the Baltics. Ive had
Taiwan before on a Sony portable on this freq but sadly this one is off
the list - for now.
Anyway salutations to all involved and thanks for helping me rediscover
Europe on MW.
regards
Paul Logan
