The prop was really strange and changing on every hour much more than before. Thanks to all contacted us, some more thanks to who have had the patience to come through some heavy walls that we experienced time to time. Sometime it was really hard to listen from this side, but all went in a friendly way. Another thing we recognized is a lot of dupe, may be in the statistical view are those are well numbered, but the view is that not only from ours site it was hard to listen. All went almost flawlessly since the first time through the whole contest, some episodes, Q’s are quite remarkable, HH in the last five minutes was the candy over a great and sweet cake. We were honored by two guest operators, Maurizio IV3ZXQ and Alberto IV3BSY. The tradition of IQ1RY, to have guest operators for ant phone or RTTY multiop contest was continued with such a good guys. Theirs efforts for the whole contest duration was invaluable. The 20m band open until early local night and a somewhat open 10m bands may seeded a change in tactics and strategy for the next times. We hope that ours move in and out the bands during the WPX time went done accordingly to those changes we are facing. Stations more South than us really appreciated much better the 10m band. A fast points and log examination has given us a big pleasure, as we went working all together and the results compared to ours oldest targets are better than before. It's nice and well done from ours standpoint. Chapeau for the big stations we listened and recognized as some of our best friends worked the WPX from there. We never forget to practice learning from those. It was a nice WPX 2011, see you all with IQ1RY in the next contests.
