This was my first ever SKN. What a blast! I activated KI4SLY, the Straight Key Century Clubs call, from my home in Glendale, AZ. Here is the short and long of my contacts; the shortest distance was less than a mile to Eric WB6TIX in Peoria, AZ and t... Read More

Family activities and celebration time permitted only 2 SKN QSOs (N8AG and AG9G) but it was nice to push the Vibroplex lightning bug out of the way and exercise the J-38. The 80 meter band occupancy seemed to fall off rapidly after midnight CST, but p... Read More

What a kick that was! I've participated each year since getting relicensed in 1998 but haven't sent my log. Made just 15 Q's but it seems that's about par. I was a ham back in the 60's and got the bug again later in life. SKN is a fun event and will co... Read More

I was having a bit of a frustrating night when the contest began, the condx in Indiana were a bit rough and I managed one contact that evening. It was with Ernie, KH4IFX in Florida, and the next day I got K1BO in Hickory NC. We had a lot of running ar... Read More

Looks like I'm just one of a number of prodigal hams returning to a great hobby after many years of absence. This was my first SKN ever! I didn't get a chance to work a whole lot of stations due to QRM (from holiday guests), but at least I can say I wa... Read More

This is the my first time to participate in SKN. I very much enjoyed my experience, and I recommend this activity to all operators. I enjoyed the rag chew style operating.
I would like to thank K2CFK and N4QR for their patience with my poor fist. It... Read More -

I dabbled a little bit in SKN on 80 & 160 on the night of Dec. 31, with no luck. I went to bed at 10:30 PM local time. Unfortunately my Cluster Headaches repaid me a visit, forcing me to be up for the midnight year change. This combined with a cold/vir... Read More
