    I had a great time on the contest! Thanks to all the patient folks for the 7 initial contacts on 1296. As you can see in the photo, Murphy re-arranged the 1296 array prior to the contest - I can only imagine where that 4th yagi is pointing. Read More

    As normal, I enjoyed the VHF-SS while conditions were below normal here in NE Oklahoma, EM26. Again we operated QRP portable but cut back on the number of bands this year: 6m, 2m, 1.2m, and 70cm. This allowed faster set-up and a little bit larger ant... Read More
