01/02/2007 | WA6OCP My third SKN and, again, a whole lot of fun. Thanks to K6FIG, W0BXS, W7UYJ, NJ7M, KB1LZH, and KJ5XF for enduring my fist and giving me 100% more QSO's than last year. Also, thanks to WD6DBM and K7SU for the warmup QSO's.

Pictured is my 1950's Speed-X, "Old Blue" - sometimes referred to as the blue slug. I frequently rotate straight keys, and this was my choice for this year.

I was amazed at the congestion on the bands at various times. CW lives! Hope to see everyone again, and even more, next year.
