Radio, too new. Antennas too broken. Plaques and certificates this year, too bad. Spent October getting ready for my trip to Nicaragua and CQWW instead of fixing antennas. Next year for me just like the Cubs. Read More

I started this year's contest with a cold. I quickly found out that I had no voice to do a good effort for the contest, but I did work mostly west coast stations. I didn't hear any stations from the east coast or the southern states. I did hear one sta... Read More

Todd, WA7U, spent the summer putting up an 80 foot tower and a 'shorty-forty' Yagi to compliment his TH-7 tri-bander already on a second tower. We decided to test the new antenna farm out with a multi-one effort in Sweepstakes. Fred, KE7X, lead the way... Read More

For a QRP single band guy, it was rough. My last SS was 2006, when I barely got 100 QSO's. This year I only made 80. Conditions were quite different on 20 meters this year. New England didn't start coming in until Sunday afternoon. New York and Pe... Read More
