    An all time first for our national club. After securing the "HQ" call sign this year's goal was to uncover some hidden talent and get on the air with 12 stations. What we did. Some were SOP low, others Multi-Multi high. From Rookie to seasoned conteste... Read More

    The August UHF contest is always a challenge but I always have a good time. This year I operated from three different grids trying to maximize my operating time. I started in FN22 just west of Cairo NY. I moved around 2200 UTC to FN32 operating from bo... Read More

    Well, that was fun! It was interesting to see what could happen without 2 meters to get the contacts started. My best DX was about 500 miles. Let's do that again sometime!

    432 Quagi failed very near the beginning of the contest. That left me with a 6 element homebrew Yagi on 222 and a 5 Watt (W1GHZ) transverter. Not much in the way of propagation. Best "DX" was KF9US, about 70 miles away. Never heard a single rover f... Read More

    After the last two totally off the rails summer contests this one felt slow paced and stodgy. However looking back, it was actually a very good UHF contest and Im amazed that my score is right up there with my previous best since I felt like I was run... Read More

    I turned on the 432 rig on Saturday afternoon with the intention of giving out some points to the regular participants. In fact, I did make a few contacts then.
    However I feel that the method of operating used by the serious contesters in the event ... Read More
