    I only had a chance to operate about 7 hours of the contest but had a blast! Early Sunday morning (3AM) I was 3 sections away from a clean sweep. Jumping back in the chair Sunday evening Mr. Murphy started in and 20 went out. Signals were better on 80 ... Read More

  • If it looks desolate, it's because it was!  Not many people visit a Phoenix area park when the temperature wil hit 115 degrees.  The park rangers, however, were overjoyed to see "something new" during this time of the year, and they were extremely supportive and helpful.

    metal bashing I got a new amp together and headed for Mt. Wachusett
