  • Just completed the 10-band setup in and on the van when it started raining (of course).

    My first try at "roving" was the SS. I participated as part of the Southern California Contest Club rover "team," which consisted of 11 vehicles roving all over southern CA.

    SS weekend began the day after the longest and most fierce set of storms expe... Read More

    02/01/2010 | K5GJ/R

    January 2010 was a mixture of HIGHS and LOWS for the newly renamed K5GJ/r Rovermobile: Unfortunately, all the HIGHS occurred before the contest started. We left Austin (EM10) on time headed for a start in EL28. The band was wide open and we were hea... Read More

    Well, it was a quiet rover trip for us this year. With KD5TDP and KE5AII off to college, that left myself and the youngest for an afternoon trip. Family rovers can be fun in rare grids. The job had me busy until just before the contest so it was barel... Read More

  • 01/31/2010 | K3Y/0

    Was another privilege to operate K3Y/0 during ARRL SKN 2010. (SKCC anniversary callsign)

    It seems fitting that SKN is celebrated this way since the SKCC was conceived by a small group of folks the enjoyed SKN and using straight keys and bugs that they... Read More

    I traveled to my former home QTH in WV during the contest weekend to visit with family. That prevented me from operating on Saturday. But on the way back to my current home QTH in SC on Sunday, I stopped off at Pilot Mountain State Park, NC, EM96.

    My i... Read More

    01/30/2010 | N0KGM

    This contest produced better results than last year. The event was a good opportunity to finish building my 24 gHz Dish to achieve a new band during this Contest. Thanks to Client, KA7OEI, who was on the other side of the Salt Lake valley, about 14 mil... Read More

    What a fun contest it turned out to be. The weather was half way nice for January and the contest Limo was warm inside. We got off to a good start with a limited amount of operators and after we shut down for the night in the wee hours of Sunday, our s... Read More

    01/29/2010 | K7XC

    Very Strong power line noise prevented me from hearing very much. Add to that running QRP power levels and I never expected to work very many people to begin with. Biggest surprise was W6YX answering my CQ on 144 Mhz CW only to rapidly fade into the S9... Read More
