    I beat my score from last year (which was a single op record for WTX).  This year I had a couple of friends come over and we ran a limited multi.  Only 3 bands available to us with 3 elements on 6, 8 elements on 2 and 11 elements on 70cm.   I had a gre... Read More

    Recovery from last year’s lighting hit is almost complete but it has been a huge struggle made even more difficult by my work schedule. Seems they scheduled a late refueling outage that was extra long due to major turbine generator overhauls that reall... Read More

    Well, another June has come and gone.  Oddly enough, I had no last-minute scramble to repair antenna issues this time around.  Bands were only moderately cooperative; netted just under 2 dozen contacts on 6, 2 and 70. Read More

    I have to agree with N5XTR. I am one of those with the zeros across the board but with 28 multipliers. Not sure how that worked out. maybe the issue was with "in the log" . Oh well I had a wonderful time. Hats off to the non rookies that took time to h... Read More

     First off it was an extremely slow QSO rate.  Most stations I talked to had never heard of the Rookie Roundup contest.  But the icing on the cake was the "in the log" website.  Notice there are 3 stations that submitted a log with zero contacts and ze... Read More
