08/08/2005 | W1AUV/R Great weather and another great contest. My thanks to everyone especially Jeff, K1TEO. This contest may have less participation that the others but I still enjoy the challenge.

My favorite QSO was with K1TEO while I operated in the pitch black of a golf driving range. I aimed the dish in the dark to where I guessed he'd be. Jeff started sending dashes and I tuned 1 KHz down and there he was. It was the fastest 10 GHz contact I ever made. From setup to tear down was just minutes!

A better rotator and a preamplifier for 1296 and I'll be ready for September.
