01/02/2007 | NS6Y My first SKN! Wired up the key couple of nights before, set up my antenna that night, built a radial system and got that spread out there, spent some "quality time" with the radio manual and tuner, by the time all was done it was pretty late and contacted AE6C with his ARC-5 and myself booming out a big 5W - although it seemed I got hard to read so I QRO'd to a massive 20W lol. The next morning, called CQ a bit, tried contacting a few ppl, finally got W7GVE and we exchanged FISTS numbers, so that makes a whopping 2 contacts, but finally, for the first time, I finally did a SKN! -- NS6Y
