    Working SKN with 4 watts from Hawaii and an attic loop was challenging. I was thrilled to work K6KPH at the site of the old coastal radio station KPH. A few folks from Japan and Mitch NH6JC on Kauai rounded out the log. Missed my old buddy Ben N6SL...J... Read More

  • Steve, K0JW prefers bugs, but not on SKN!

    01/05/2004 | K0JW

    I enjoyed SKN this year very much! Completed re-capping my Johnson Ranger just in time and it worked flawlessly with my Collins 75A-4. What a trip down memory lane to rag-chew with the J-38 again! Thanks to all who responded to my calls, looking forwar... Read More

    A holiday "tradition", Straight Key Night is a great opportunity to dust off some of your older gear and fire it up! Which is exactly what happened to my HW-16; snap, crackle, pop! Switching over to a more modern rig, I was able to make a few contacts ... Read More

    Considering I ran 50 watts and my antenna is a ground mounted vertical, I had a blast in this contest. Made lots of contacts and was 6 states shy of making WAS in the contest. Looking forward to the next one.

    I had fun even with the modest 10-meter station. Would really like to see more RTTY operaton during non event times. Always enjoyed operating "the old green keys". 73 Rich Read More

    I won't say I made a great "performance", but it was a great event to "get together" again this year.

    It was nice to have quiet geomagnetic conditions, especially on 80 and 40 meters. I could hear and contact many stations that I wouldn't have heard o... Read More

  • DP1POL (DL5XL) at the operating position.

    01/05/2004 | DP1POL

    DP1POL is located at Neumayer Station, Antarctica, Grid Locator
    IB59VI. I have been working here as a radio operator since December
    2002, and will leave at the end of January 2004. I have had a great
    time in the Antarctic, it was fun to be active on... Read More

    I had lots of fun with the event. I was a little disappointed by the very small number of PSK operations during the two days.

    For next year I would recommend:

    -- Include PSK63 as a permissible mode. It is excellent for high speed contesting.

    -- Allow ... Read More
