This effort was a mixed bag for me. Saturday started out painfully slow and I just couldn't get "in the groove". I was so frustrated that when I QRT'd for the night....I made plans to attend a hamfest Sunday mornning rather than get up and contest. ... Read More

This was my first contest after a 7 year absence from ham radio. I decided to run SSB at QRP. What a surprise it was to me that I worked 50 ARRL sections and logged over 150 stations. I really want to thank everyone for their patience with QRP stations... Read More

I'm a new amateur radio operator and this was my first contest. Wow! It was a lot of fun, but hard work at the same time.
I got a late start because I was flying in from a business trip on Saturday. I began working the contest around 0530 on 16 Nov ... Read More -
