  • 6 el. DK7ZB Yagi (10.15dBd) temporary setup on tripod in the backyard

    12/11/2007 | DJ0MY

    Due to job related time limitations I was only able to work a few hours in the evening of the second weekend in JT65B mode on 144 MHz.

    I received/decoded at least 10 different stations with my tiny "QRP" station, but I was only able to contact one big... Read More

  • W5LCC Contest Station

    12/11/2007 | W5LCC

    Not a bad contest for ten just got tired of working state side. It looked like on Friday that it was going to be a good contest we worked 209 qso in the first two hours and shut down at five hours with 351 qso. We did get a few new hams on the radio ... Read More

    This year's contest was disappointing to say the least. I managed to get a rotatable dipole up (instead of the usual vertical) and I was looking forward to a little bit of directionality this year. Of course, the sun decided not to cooperate as we al... Read More

    It was hard to work some K-VE stations during the contest with my limited power and my ZS6BKW antenna, but I still enjoyed it.
    Never have been contesting before in another country so I guess I will be the No. 1 from The Gambia this time...

  • My kids really like to see maps showing stations I've worked.  They like coloring them in too.  It's helped them get interested in radio.  They even know how to use my paddle/keyer to send CW!

    Enjoyed working the contest, especially on Friday night. Who says 10 is dead? Not me - until Saturday and Sunday - UGH! Worked 20 states (18 on Friday night, 2 on Saturday night), all SSB. Need to start doing CW in contests if I'm going to up my sc... Read More

    I have recently decided to dabble more seriously in contesting. I found this one pretty challenging!

    S&P, 100W, CW only.

    Weren't all that many I could work, even with 5 el at 80'. Sure kept the rotor going, I'll say that much.

    172 QSO points, 19 Mu... Read More

  • When IS ten meters coming back?!?!

    12/10/2007 | N4SL

    From WWA, USA:

    I chose to sit this out out, got on for 30 minutes on Sunday noon to work the locals... and that's exactly all I worked, too, locals.

    A far cry from the sunspot peak when the entire world was on all at once. It's coming back, just wait. Read More
