    WOW, what a different world. I thought I would try the QRP Power this year in SweepStakes Phone as I had good luck in last year's 10 Meter contest.

    Great contest from Hawaii. Got my first SWEEP ever. This was the first year to operate SS contest from the new station here in Hawaii since moving from California. Everything worked well with 15 meters playing the best. I want to thank everyone for... Read More

    Two operators here at NT5HS had a lot of fun this SS. As the end of the contest approached, we really wondered if anyone in IA, MS, and NE would get on 40m or 80m -- and finally, they did. Our first Sweep! Next year, we might even travel to an unusu... Read More
