     Had a blast! Only got to operate for a bit less than 8 hours on Saturday and 1 1/2 hours on Sunday but 15 meters was lively. Felt I did OK considering 100 watts and a single dipole. The vertical didn't help at all. Maybe next year I'll have a gain ant... Read More

    2015 ARRL International DX Phone Contest   Winter is the perfect time to contest! No lawn to mow, not weeds to pull in the garden, and best of all, quiet band conditions. I operate a modest station, a Yaesu FT-840 unfiltered with a 260 foot sloping di... Read More

     It took 4 of us an hour and a half to string up the 94 foot dipole (same antenna we use every year). This antenna comes out of a third story math classroom ... across the school's driveway ... and is anchored in a tree. Man, it was cold. The first day... Read More

    Hello, this was my first ARRL DX CW contest ever! Our contest location is usually occupied by Leo – S50R as was this days. So I had to put together all my courage, and try it from home. My home is in a narrow valley, bottom width in average 80m, extend... Read More

    I operated the ARRL CW DX contest from a roadside park overlooking Sarasota Bay, running QRP with a KX3 and an MFJ telescoping whip planted at the edge of the water. The antenna was extended to a quarter wave for 10-20, and I clipped on a 16 foot exten... Read More
