After years of US multi-ops together (K4OV and N1BA), this was our first experience on the DX side of contesting. What an experience! We brought poles and wires to a beach in the bahamas, and spent two days setting up Field Day style- a SpiderBeam fo... Read More

No antenna for 160 at the moment, so a competitive all-band entry was out of the question; decided therefore to just play for a few hours (N1MM+ shows on-air activity as 15 hours). Audio from the contest Qs is already on-line at: http://www.gw4ble.d... Read More

We couldn't use our regular site on Blue Mtn. because the road is closed seasonally for snow. California is in a drought and there is no snow on the mountain but that didn't seem to matter! Instead we operated from a mountain 3000 feet lower but a do... Read More

Great test, although conditions not quite as good as last year. We had another personal best of 367 contacts - all S&P. 152 mults gives us a score on the order of 167K. Not bad for just fooling around with an HF9V ground mounted in my back yard! Bes... Read More
