I decided to operate from the top of Emigrant Hill southeast of the home QTH
in Pendleton, Oregon (DN05). The almost 3000' of elevation gain certainly
helped out! It was foggy and icy all day Saturday, but upon my return
Sunday morning after a fog... Read More -

Best DX was Bob N7AU in DN07 on 2M & 135cm. (TNX BOB!) We couldn't hear each other on 6M & 70cm as we have in past contests. Normally Bob and I can sweep 6M-70cm.
On Saturday I spent slightly over 6 hours calling CQ on FSK441/JT44 toward known popula... Read More -

Boy! Was this a tough one. Saturday was dismal with very few contacts being made. I made a few 2 meter contacts to the local area and when I went to 432 I found out, that portion of my radio had stopped transmitting. I could hear the number of operato... Read More

My goal this year was to make the QSO with each station last as long as possible. I wanted to learn as much as possible about the operator on the other end. I'm not a contester, I really enjoy the QSO itself, quality, not quantity.

This was the first time I did SKN for quite a few years. I was hoping to get a little more practice before going on the air, but jumped in any way. I made only one contact, Joe K0IVK, and it was as enjoyable as I remember my previous SKNs. I used an... Read More
