01/02/2006 | NV4T I didn't get to participate as much as I wanted due to having a bad cold, and family activities, but sure did have a good time. The rig was my old standby a Heathkit HW-16 with HG-10 VFO, which behaved much better than last year (no drift or ac hum), and used a 75 foot wire up 30 feet, all activity being on 40 cw. Ran into a lot of guys using J-38 or Navy keys, mine was a little different--- I used a J-45 thigh key, which makes for an interesting keying technique, but isn't too bad after you get used to it.
See y'all in 2006!
