Another great contest. The six meter opening right at the beginning of the contest sure was nice. Unfortunately I missed some normally easy grids on all the bands. I was very pleased with my 903 and 1296 results. As always had a lot of fun and appreci... Read More

So this was it. This was my first serious attempt at contesting and I had a blast. After months of planning, plotting, modifying, scouting, upgrading and annoying everybody I came into contact with, the event went off largely as planned. I made a gi... Read More
