I'm very glad that six meters opened up Saturday and parts os Sunday. With 100w on 6/2 and 30w on 220/70cm I managed to reach the 5g point level by contest end. Hope to hear more people on 2m in September.

I had actually forgotten about the contest until late Friday evening. I had spent the day Friday scavenging parts from my old R5 vertical to repair a bad trap on a second-hand R7 and the subsequent tuning. While checking the SWR, I heard another stat... Read More
