01/10/2008 | WB7GR GR8 FUN AGAIN. I made more contacts than last year but not as many as next. I used Nye Viking straight key with my new IC-7000. Thanks to those who slowed down to chat with me and thanks to the quicker ones who forced me to get in even more practice. SKN is the best because there is no pressure to collect points and everyone on the band is extra plesant and courteous. I hope to work YOU next year. 73, Greg -- WB7GR
