    This was my second year for SKN and I set a goal to make at least 5 contacts. Last year I only made 3 QSOs, all being out of state. This year I made three again with only one out of state, the other two were here in Amarillo.
    What happened? I thin... Read More

    Great SKN. Lots of activity. I fired up my Drake TR 44 and used a Signal Electric spark key (1915?) As others have said it felt like the old novice days on 40. Great! Read More

    Conditions were not that great out here on Maui. Maybe it takes time for those new sunspots to heat up the ionosphere? I used my J-38 and flame key to key the old Omni-D. I was able to work KK6AW, K9WZB, W5DVT, and 'RD" at K6KPH. I give my vote for bes... Read More

    Another Straight Key Night has come and gone. It was fun as usual. Many great fists and some nice sounding old radios on the air. My first contact was with N8TI up in Michigan on my favorite band, 160M. Enjoyed a nice chat with him. Second contact... Read More
