This was my first time working SKN with my old straight key. I have been wanting to do it for the past two years, but would either forget it or something got in the way on SKN night. This time was no exception. I just had major dental surgery on the 29... Read More

As with each contest, that I enter seriously, my main objective is to better my
last year's score. My secondary objective was reaching 1000 Q's. I doubt if I
