    This was my first CW Sweepstakes ever and WHAT FUN!. Not a great score, but I had a really great time. Thanks to my XLY for taking care of the kids during the evenings. Working 40 meters in the evenings sure gave the front end of my TS-520S a workout. ... Read More

    The November Sweepstakes. The contest to test your mettle. The contest that proves how much of a lid you are, with no one able to really run away from the pack, with the long and complex exchange, with the combination of high rate and efficiency in t... Read More
