  • Steve, GW4BLE (with Mickey for support!), taken just minutes after the end of this year's contest.

    03/08/2008 | GW4BLE

    Wasn't able to be too active in last year's contest, so great fun to be back on again for 2008. Conditions were really poor from this latitude in Europe though, also suffered from wind damage to my 40m antenna late-on Sunday evening.

    Thanks to all for ... Read More

  • 03/07/2008 | K3TUF

    This was the first opportunity to use a small portion of my new tower. I used it for 1296 and 2304 without the benefit of tower top preamplifiers (see K3TUF.COM)
    The Contest was a busy enough one even given the relatively flat conditions. Some day we... Read More

    I had only few hours available for this weekend so I decided to work the

    Thanks to my friend Rudi HB9RG to give me the opportunity to work the

  • My vintage Collins operating position used for '08.

    03/07/2008 | W8JMF

    A year after re-entering contesting it just wasn't quite what I was hoping for. Nice to see some new-comers had fun with it as I did last year. I had afternoon conflicts both days, but really wanted to hit 75M after getting my extra last fall and con... Read More

  • 03/06/2008 | WA7MR

    What a blast after being off the air for about 7 years! Only worked 170 contacts in about 12 hours of just "hunt and pounce", but had 95 multipliers between 15, 20, 40 and 80 meters using inverted Vees on each band.

    Look for us in the 7QP Contest from ... Read More
