What a blast! I was fortunate to operate from the W0AIH/W0UC contest shack (EN44) again this year. While I was getting all my gear setup, I was listening to W4s on 6m. Stations were S9+. I knew the contest was going to rock. I found a somewhat clear s... Read More

The contest opened and closed with a bang out her... Read More -

Good old 6 meters! Saturday was the day for 6. It started in the east and worked to the south then south west.
I was counting on 2 meters and 432 but not much activity on those two.
This was the best contest I have ever been in.
Lots of fun! I need to ... Read More -

What a ride! We'll all be talking about this one for a while. We managed to squeeze 10 grids into a 653 mile trip, starting early and working late. We were the K9ILT/R 88 Degree Dash Team for the weekend, running north Saturday and south Sunday along ... Read More
