This is kinda of a unique contest. Where op's are seeking out Unique and different prefix callsigns world wide.
This will bring out the op's. So even with conditions the way they are, should provide some interesting DX contacts and unusual plus special issued callsigns.
Have Fun...Enjoy... I normally spend some time on 40m in the dark hours here that weekend in IN....
Worth noting due to some countries band plans...you will hear DX SSB stations in the US/International CW bands from like 7.050-7.100 and they will be listening SPLIT in the US Phone band. So station XX?...transmits on 7.070 LSB...listens on 7.230 LSB etc...Just make sure you get your rig set correctly and don't transmit out of your band limits. They will identify where they are listening for stations.
All the Best
