    Well I wasn't sure if it would happen last fall - but I actually followed through and operated single-op portable (QRP) for the Jan '04 contest. May sound a bit crazy to some to even consider the setup outdoors in January but I live in the southern pa... Read More

    I had a great time on the contest! Thanks to all the patient folks for the 7 initial contacts on 1296. As you can see in the photo, Murphy re-arranged the 1296 array prior to the contest - I can only imagine where that 4th yagi is pointing. Read More
