    I had very dismal results this year, making only 14 contacts, all on six meters. I didn't hear much activity at all. Some other participants in the local area (EM66)also commented on the almost non-existent activity. Perhaps we were just in a "dead z... Read More

    Really great contest, my second ever (January VHF was the first). Compared to January, conditions this time around were spectacular, I had three huge openings on Six: N0JJQ in Iowa, an OM in Florida (EL99) that I can't remember as of now, and VP5KE in ... Read More

    The June VHF Contest was fun as always, but the lack of multiple 6 meter band openings like last year was disappointing. Only experienced a short opening to the states west of my Northeast OH location into SD, KS, and NE Sunday afternoon with outstandi... Read More

  • I recently received a gift for my ten-year anniversary at work and I chose a telescope so that I could use the tripod base for mounting my Two Meter beam on top of the roof of my car as shown here.  There is a short vertical whip for 220 MHz below the tripod.

    I ahve a great location from the parking lot on Brasstown Bald GA at about 4500 feet(EM84). I ran a FT100 into a 5 element 6M beam and 5 element 2M beam on a 20 foot mast. Band conditions we not the greatest so I decided to operate for fun instead of t... Read More

    Well, the *June* QSO Party is now over, and what do I find on the floor but my long lost logsheet from the *January* contest. Figures. Looking back it's a darn shame I lost it... had 17 6m, 17 2m and 2 70cm contacts for 36; that's probably the best I'... Read More

    I had just purchased a used (but in fantastic condition) Kenwood TR-9130 all mode 2 meter radio and just in time for the January, 2007 VHF contest... I used a portable MFJ 3 element beam and it worked out great for USB and CW. I look forward to June's... Read More
