Great effort,but...
Usual IQ4A operation style - with a lot of stations on different bands - trying to move every possible mult...
That's what they call "Multi-Single"...
:-))

First of all I would like to congratulate all the crew members for their effort in the D44TC operation. It was a great job in a great contest.
About the comment on the Anonymous message, I just would like to make a small comment. The spirit in contesting , at least in my way of thinking, it is a relaction between several factors. In those factors we can find, tecnical factors, geografic factors, skills and over all etical factors. If the D44TC crew achieved this results, I am sure that they had all those factors, also the etical, in consideration. There's no point in contesting not fullfilling the regulations and knowing that in advance. Sooner or later the truth comes up. I know personnaly some members of this crew, and for them I am sure the operation was a suscess in all terms.
As for us in Madeira Team, lets try again next time.
For all, Best 73 and a Happy new year.

"Dear Anonymous",
I'm not used to get in touch with people who has not a face to withstand his own affirmations.

IQ4A was not active in the CQWW SSB but only on CW.
Our operations strictly followed the rules for the Multi Single category.

Anyway if you have a face our shack was, and still is, open to you and all ham friends would like to enjoy the team for a contest.

For the CQWW CW 2001 we had the help of two great operators like Ben DL6RAI and Peter DL2NBU. They enjoy the usual IQ4A team for the whole contest.

Ben is also an important member of the contest committee so do you think we were so stupid to break the basic rules of the Multi Single category????

I think you missed something about the CQWW MS rules or your CW is so bad to confuse IQ4A and IQ4T (another great Multi single effort).

So your anonymous post gave the real value to your affirmations, they are nothing as probably you are as amateur radio.

Sincerely,
Claudio I4VEQ/IQ4A and the IQ4A team.

Nice photos and a great job of telling the story!

But I wonder what person would travel to a "rare" country during a CQWW contest and only be able to watch???!!! This would be torture for me...

reply to K5ZD
1. some people are good at sitting by the radio
2. some people are better at taking pictures
3. I am not good enough operator to break world records
4. I was not just watching - I helped a lot, antenna work before the contest and 6 QSO's and 6 multipliers during the contest (D44CF on six bands!)
5. I actually stayed 5 weeks in the islands and made thousands of QSO's, participated in both CW and SSB parts of CQ WW as D44CF.
6. any more questions ?

I didn't realize that Cape Verde was such a cold place! Electric furnaces with silver exaust tubes required. Probably 500 W :-)

Nice operation MC! Missed you on 50 MHz...

The climate changes are unpredictable these days. Just in case, it's good to have a furnace even in Cape Verde. A stiff frozen operator is slow...

WOW! Great pictures and a great effort. Big antennas, big signal. You guys were loud up on 160!
I am from the other end of the spectrum though. I try to put in a world class single op/all band effort with just a vertical on the beach. High power of course. Glad to work you guys on all bands. See you this CQWWSSB signing VP2M/AH8DX.

Gud Dx! Craig Maxey, FS/AH8DX
