Another great SKN! Used my J-37 that I've had since 1966 or so. Rig was my homebrew 100 watt CW transceiver, known as the Southgate Type 7.
Only two QSOs (K8VBL and K5LG) but what great QSOs! K8VBL was running a homebrew 35 watter, so we were homebrew-... Read More -

Though short on the number of QSOs (22), SKN 2004 was no exception for a wonderful time. Using 52 year old glow-in-the-dark equipment and the J-38 once owned by my mentor, W9FUF, quality made up for the lack of quantity. Several contacts passed the o... Read More

This was my first time working SKN with my old straight key. I have been wanting to do it for the past two years, but would either forget it or something got in the way on SKN night. This time was no exception. I just had major dental surgery on the 29... Read More

SKN was wonderfull my equipment was embarrassingly new compared to most. The Rig was my Yaesu FT-897 and my key a Vibroplex Double with straight key beside an original bug. I made 7 contacts all enjoyable Rag Chews. 4 on 80 m, 1 on 40m, 1 on 20m, and 1... Read More

This was a nice event, gave me a good excuse to fire up my rig after a long hiatus. Rig was a K2/100, key was a vintage J-38. I only contacted 5 stations in the hour I had to spare, but it was fun doing so. I'll be back next year. Read More
