    What a contest I don't know where to start! I more than doubled my highest score in 1998. After a long rest from contesting the new station is really working well. Here is a short list of great contacts and operators I had the pleasure of working. W3IY... Read More

    Great contest in spite of 10m band was almost dead.
    Lots of confusion because we think the rules are not so clear when working with a multiplier station. Thus, we decide to stay only with one signal at time on the bands and just hearing and taking note... Read More

    Great contest! I wish that the east coast could hear my signal better,
    as many low power stations were heard here in AZ. I was fun working JA's off the backside

    I had problems with the 3-Band-Mini-Beam that i had with me. At the first
    test at home it works not bad, but in OH0-Land there was no resonance
    on 15m and on 20m i found, that it had no directivity. So i used mostly
    wire dipoles and a 1-element deltal... Read More
