    As usual Skywarn Recognition Day at WX0GLD meant no Friday night operation plus pre-fatigue for Saturday. I'd hoped to have K0FW cover Friday but he was on family sick patrol so the multiop entry amounted to m... Read More

    20 and 15 were crowded --- very good participation. A wind storm took down my 40/80 meter loop about 4:30 Saturday afternoon. Despite that little set-back, I still made my best showing ever --- over 600 q's. Thanks everybody for a great contest. Read More

    I was finally approaching completion of the re-modeling of the N2NHN shack (90%, anyhow), and used Phone Sweeps as an opportunity to "christen" the space. A new chair, a new L-shaped counter top, and working equipment made for a great weekend! I starte... Read More

    The night before, I decided to check everything so that I would be ready and coul... Read More

    I got hooked on contesting last Field Day. Since then I got an MFJ-9420 and put a dipole in my attic. With only 10 watts on one band and no ability to change direction it was a challenge to make 100 QSO's, but I did it. Of course it didn't help that... Read More

    Phone Sweeps just happens to fall during the Kentucky Deer Season, so I have missed any real effort for it for many years. BUT this year was a bit different, since my sons have both upgraded to General this past year. So between chasing venison we deci... Read More
