KQ6EE was at the top of San Gabriel Peak (6161') above Pasadena, CA operating QRP. The reason why I chose San Gabriel Peak because it is the closest and easiest mountain to climb. It takes less than an hour drive from my home QTH. I operated from 6m t... Read More

Worked from the hillside above Anchorage on Saturday, very windy!
Worked all 5 bands I have (6m/2m/1.25/70cm/33cm) as a rover. Items of note, fewer operators than January. Managed to make 40 contacts (down from 55 in Jan). Worked several grids. Mad... Read More -

Every once in a while, you hit that dream opening on Six Meters. In the past, I actually had a few good Sporadic-E openings that occurred during the VHF contest but for the most part, these openings tended to be short in duration and maybe a handful o... Read More

Hamfest and long periods of zero E-skip cut into the QSO Party; nevertheless managed 75 grids on 6 meters. Amazing what magic occurs on 6 even with low power and simple antennas. Unfortunate that the Saturday morning opening from Texas to the Mideast... Read More

Best VHF Contest I've ever had the opportunity to operate! Made only the 2nd ever contact to a non-US ham direct via 6m, had plenty through 2 & 440 linked to 10m repeaters, but nothing beats the good old direct simplex contacts! Started the day off Sat... Read More

I had a lot of fun for my first VHF contest. I got a late start because the the road to my first choice QTH on Mt. Rainer was still closed from snow (Sunrise Point @ 6400 feet elevation). The view from my second choice QTH, Paradise @ 4380 feet elevat... Read More

Operating from FN44, Oxford County, Maine.
Heavy rain washed out the access to the hilltop so we cancelled our multiop effort. Made it up the hill once with the antennas and operated from the car. Bands: 50, 144, 222, 432, 1296.
Great openings Saturda... Read More
