08/05/2008 | KB3JKV This was the first time I participated in the UHF contest and my first time operating portable. I was only QRV on 432. due to my lack of equipment. Activity was lower than I expected, After 9 hours of operating time (both days combined) I only managed to make 10 contacts. I was atop Shade Mountain FN10kr at 2100'asl I had hoped for better results, Although I will admit one of my weaknesses is not being a proficient CW operator and I missed A few because of it. I guess I'll have to work on that for next year.
