[Araucaria Dx] CQ WPX CW 2020

[Thomas Carlsson]

Hi Mark,
We had same comments here with our Flex, lack of sidetone and no paddle to
make short comments, Here we did MS
without mult. station 4 operators in shifts from SJ0X @ SK0UX.
Unfortunately all our rotators out of order so nothing direct to South
America but we managed a handful ,
I did some PY and CE do not know what others did.

73,
Thomas, SM0CXU, SM2U / PY2ZXU, PW2D
