2010 ARRL 160 Meter Contest

12/06/2010 | K4WY

 

The 2010 160 meter contest was great!  I made 320 + contacts with 10 DX QSOs.  The highlights were many but working KH6 and finding an Idaho QSO as the sun was rising on Sunday morning were the best of the best.  The entire contest was a search on pounce operation.  The rig here was a Kenwood TS-590S at 100 watts where the IF DSP receiver on this rig was super hot.  The antenna was an inverted L that is  150 feet long and vertically up a 70 foot pine tree and the balance of the wire to the west.  Looking forward to the next one and hope to be on 160 more throughout the winter.  73 K4WY
