We put together a local team for our phone efforts. Dwayne and I were hoping to hit 1500 QSOs and we exceeded our goal once again and apparently in the process broke the existing WY record - needless to say we were pretty psyched!

Back when I was a novice, SS was the first contest I competed in (FD is not a contest, right? hi hi!). Come a long way from a HW16/HG10 and a dipole. In all this time, the sweep has eluded me, but this year, finally, A SWEEP!

Bought a place on Caroga Lake this past summer. My wife and I are planning to live there when our youngest graduates from high school in 2011. I've been building a station there as it's a place where I can run a legal limit amplifier without annoying... Read More

Last year I set my goal at 150 QSOs for the 2009 contest. That was under the assumption that I would be working 20 meter QRP from KY again. As it turns out I was in LAX with a somewhat balky TS-520 and an antenna wrapped around my apartment walls. I... Read More

W7DK Has not been too active on the contest scene lately, so some of us have decided to put the "Mighty 'DK!" back on the air for contests, usually ARRL sponsored ones, because we go way back with the ARRL.
