The 2009 CQ Worldwide CW Contest was held this past weekend over the 48 hour period from 0000Z 28 November to 2400Z 29 November. The objective of this contest is for amateurs around the world to contact as many other amateurs in as many zones, countries, and VE areas (Canadian zones) as possible. This contest is conducted on the 3.5, 7, 14, 21, and 28 MHz bands. The mode for this contest is Morse code, CW (continuous wave). As detailed below, most of my contacts (QSOs) were on the 7, 14, and 21 MHz bands. Due to the current quiet state of the Sun, the highest frequency band (28 MHz) was mostly unusable. All in all, conditions were good for this contest throughout the entire weekend.
