This was my first Sweepstakes since 1988, when I was just starting college. I was bluffing my way through learning new logging software, and managed to get two more temporary antennas up in time for the contest to start. The first day I felt like I si... Read More

This was only my 2nd year at SS but all the great operators made for a great time. It is definately becoming my favorite. I used a K2/100 a 40-10m horizontal loop and a 160-10 end fed. No record busting scores here but did double last years effort. Alr... Read More

First time back in CW SS in a number of years. Decided to go the QRP route this time around using an FT-817 and a trap dipole for 80-10 meters. 15 meters was open all weekend which was nice for a change. You definitely have to adopt a different cont... Read More

This was my first SOHP entry into CW Sweepstakes. My goal was to maximize my score as much as possible for the South East Contest Club. K4JPD and I spent the past summer assembling a 100' tower with a KT36XA and 4 el on 40. I also had dipoles on 40 ... Read More
