A total of 13 contacts were made during the SKN period in 9 states and 2 Canadian provinces.    K4XU was using his Dad's old key and N7OC was using his original novice key.

I had a nice chat with W7VN about Titus Canyon in Death Valley and ran into a former neighbor, WA9CWX from my Wisconsin days in the 1970's.  Most stations were running 50-100 watts out to various wire antennas and KJ4AOM in KY was using his K3 with a "stealth" OCF dipole on 15M.

Thanks to all for a pleasant beginning to 2011.
