  • Gulf Alpha Antennas (222-12EL) 222 MHZ 12 Element Long Boom Yagi (Thanks, Gary N3JPU!)

    This was my third ARRL January VHF Sweepstakes and I spent some time to see in the past where I needed to improve.

    My goal was to get a radio with a better receiver and add more bands. On 2m and 70cm I was using an Icom 706MKIIG and I ended up selling... Read More

    I operated high power this year for the first time thanks to a new to me Alpha 78. What a difference QRO makes! Next year I plan to add a couple of receiving antennas as well. Although not as good as I hoped to do, it was still fun to work the gang on ... Read More

    The extremely cold weather, a large snow storm, and the NFL Playoffs combined to makes this a slow and boring contest with poor to very poor conditions / activity. Lets move the January event back to the week before the Superbowl like it always was bef... Read More

    ....ARGH .... That is my first thought when I reflect back on this contest. Well below zero temps, low humidity and other unknown factors combined to produce terrible conditions. The cold temps, poor conditions and the football playoffs in turn created... Read More

  • Dual-polarization 4-yagi array at K1JT as it appeared in late October. Single yagis for 50, 222, and 432 MHz are atop the EME array. For the January contest, loopers for 903, 1296, and 2304 MHz were mounted above and below the horizontal member of the big H-frame.

    An unusual operating style led to an all-time high (for me) of 61 multipliers on 2m, more than half of which came from random EME QSOs using JT65. My log includes DXCC prefixes W, VE, RU, UA9, S5, OH, DL, HA, G, OZ, YU, F, I, EA, OK, PJ4, and SV. Rov... Read More

    Another January Sweeps is in the bag and the K2QO rover team (K2QO + W2TAU) has done it again. Our score was down from the last few years. The auditors are off today due to the holiday so our 88884 points is only a guess for now.

    We spent a lot of ti... Read More

    We were an official rover this year! Last June we moved from Mississippi and Texas with three hams in the car during the contest, but did not turn in a log since my daughters and I were a family station and there were not category for us to submit und... Read More

    I did the Whidbey Island (WA) Rove (with a short side trip to Mt. Erie on in Accacortes, WA.) I activated CN87 & CN88 on 6m, 2m, & 70cm.
    Temps ranged 2 deg C - 6 deg C. A bit of snow noted atop Mt. Erie.

    I operated from my 500 ft hilltop in Clinton (CN... Read More
