My soapbox comments were posted for about 20 minutes and then disappeared. Hmmm. Anyway, this is my second year in the RTTY Round Up. After being a ham since 1976, I decided to get into the digital game. And what a game it is! In 2009 I banged out... Read More

After being off air abt 2 years for health reasons I hooked my Henery Tempo 2020 up and made 16 contacts. I used an old Flame Proof Key and had antenna woes from the start. But was great fun, I guess the QSO that stood out the most was with a Lid In ... Read More

Well, SKN was fun again. I worked 10 extended QSO's, not counting the SKCC contacts -- what a great way to start a year, doing exactly what we have fun doing! I operated using a homebrew straight key, as well and my Lionel J-36 bug that was given to me... Read More

Here is a list of stations worked in the 2010 SKN: 80 meters: WA3SLN, W4FOA, KT8N, K9NO; 40 meters: WA9CFK, W4RK. Can't really say if any one contact was the "best" or "most interesting". They were all "FB" and this "OT" had a good time! Used old Colli... Read More

This was a great SKN, partly because I was using a rig similar to my novice set-up in the 1960s, and also because I had 9 qsos lasting about 30 minutes each. My operating equipment consisted of an HT-40 tx putting out about 50 wts, a real nice BC-312 ... Read More
