SKN gets better each year, got to operate more this year and it was loads of fun. Heard many using the very old gear with good signals. Always a pleasure to hear the older rigs still alive and kicking. Made 40 qso's all on 40 meters and was surprised at how good the signals were with less than stellar conditions.Used a 1947 Vibroplex original that I found at a swapfest this past summer.I sure appreciate all the patience the guys showed putting up with my bug fist. Already looking forward to the next SKN.
