My last previously logged CW contacts were made in August of 1969, so it would have been nice to have heard a few more stations sending at slower speeds. Had there been, I know I would have worked more than five. Will try it again next year :-) Read More

It was probably 1980 that I last worked SKN and the event posted on the ARRL website pulled me back to 80 meters. My first contact was K2WI running his WWII spy suitcase and the best fist of the evening. Thanks, Rob, for a most interesting contact even... Read More

I was able to make 16 SKCC K2A Anniversary QSO's from zero land. Also a number of QSO's from othe... Read More
