Only had time for a handful of ragchews on 40 meters on New Year's Day, but always lots of fun. Beautiful CW sent by fine operators - it doesn't get much better than that!

SKN is special. Condx were poor. I didn't work a soul on 20M. On 40M worked K4BKD and W3FAF. Both of these ops had FB fists. C U next year 73 Greg WB9MII

In the past I would setup one of my vintage rigs but this year I was just too lazy. It is always great to hear all of the activity, the home-brew rigs, th... Read More -

What can i say? Another great SKN. 40 mtrs was full of the sweet sound of cw. Although it seems every year i am quite busy about this time, i try and make some time for SKN.
Worked 5 stations with my FT817 (5 Watts), BLT Tuner, Timewave ANC-4 for some ... Read More -

I only had time to make a few contacts for SKN but it was nice to hear individual fists on the bands instead of everybody sounding the same and coming from keyers or keyboards. It was also interesting to hear some of the older rigs with a little bit o... Read More
