After year it is hear again, big day in hamradio community. As usually I planned join and celebrate it with others on the air. No improvements on radio nor antenna, so I focused on technology in hamshack and little experimenting.

During last CQ WW CW I used DX cluster fed from reverse beacon network, which brought a lot of easy DXes. Later I thought about hamspirit and using such tool and I decided if send log, then as checklog. Anyway, this year it was without RBN.

When I was waiting for my Raspberry Pi year ago I started to learn python language. First I tried composed ADIF parser. During the time, I modified it little to use it via import command and made also some scripts.

Year ago I develeped simple script for analyze of QSL cards received via buro. Now it is time look which cards came from buro this year.

• 5H3EE via DL4ME

Time run very fast and there is another international amateur radio meeting in Holice. First plan was make quick trip just for Friday and in the evening back. Later we changed our intentions and took our tiny caravan for the ride.

Na konferenci Českého radioklubu, na takzvaném OKLISTu v posledních dnech vyeskalovalo téma o přeposílání ARRL DX bulletinu. Ten je běžně dostupný na webu ARRL, avšak automaticky zasílán jen jeho členům.

Pro mě osobně je v této době buletin nezajímavý dokument a tak jej úspěšně ignoruji.

Also this year father and I participated in VHF Field day with Vlada OK2DGB. Vlada operated on 23cm as usually and we was giving points on 2m band. Meanwhile, I participated in two Czech activity contests (CW/SSB) on 80m too. All the effort were made with our new club callsign OK1RIG.

I received certificate for CQ WW SSB 2012 and finally retained 2011's victory in same category.

This contest is hold annualy on every 3rd Sunday, 8:00–11:00 UTC
