大好きな曲です。
日本語に訳した歌詞を読むと実にくだらないのですが（ひたすら、ジャックお前ここから出ていけ！二度と戻ってくるな！…という歌詞です）何回も聴いてしまう名曲（？）ですね。



"Hit The Road Jack"

Hit the road Jack and don't cha come back
No more no more no more no more
Hit the road Jack and don't cha come back
No more
What'd you say?

Hit the road Jack and don't cha come back
No more no more no more no more
Hit the road Jack and don't cha come back
No more

Old woman old woman, oh you treat me so mean
You're the meanest old woman that I've ever seen
I guess if you say so
I'll have to pack my things and go (that's right)

Hit the road Jack and don't cha come back
No more no more no more no more
Hit the road Jack and don't cha come back
No more
What'd you say?

Hit the road Jack and don't cha come back
No more no more no more no more
Hit the road Jack and don't cha come back
No more

Now baby, listen baby, don't you treat me this way
Cause I'll be back on my feet some day
Don't care if you do, cause it's understood
You ain't got no money, you just a no good
Well I guess if you say so
I'll have to pack my things and go (that's right)

Hit the road Jack and don't cha come back
No more no more no more no more
Hit the road Jack and don't cha come back
No more
What'd you say?

Hit the road Jack and don't cha come back
No more no more no more no more
Hit the road Jack and don't cha come back
No more

Well, (don'cha come back no more)
Uh, what'd you say? (don'cha come back no more)
I didn't understand you (don'cha come back no more)
You can't mean that (don'cha come back no more)
Oh, now baby please (don'cha come back no more)
What you're trying to do to me (don'cha come back no more)

毎年、楽しみにしていますこのコンテストに今年も参加しました。
目的は、もちろんATNOとの交信と10mと40mのバンドニューを増やすためなのですが、アンテナが悪いのか、CONDXが悪かったのか、はたまた今の設備では頭打ちなのかよくわかりませんが、ATNOもバンドニューも全く増えませんでした。
PZ5DX - スリナムや、MW4R - ウェールズをRBNでロックオンしてチャンスを伺っていたのですが、残念ながらQSOには至りませんでした。
何れにせよ、酒を飲りながら遊んでいますので、途中でやる気が無くなったのは間違いないですね…。

来年の同時期も、まだ同じような設備なので大した成果は上がらないと思いますが、再来年はビームアンテナをブンブン振り回して稼がせてもらいますよ。
