    This was a year more of experimentation with RTTY than making contacts for me. My preferred mode is CW, and though I like RTTY, I don't type well enough to use any keyboard modes for ragchewing. So I spent the RU making occasional Q's and adjusting v... Read More

    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... Read More

    We had a great time at Field Day 2007. The kids learned that there are more ways to have fun than watching TV or playing video games. The contesting is great fun, but when you add food and fellowship with other HAMs and new friends it's even better. Read More

    I made 3 short but enjoyable contacts during SKN, using an old Ham-Key HK-3 straight key that I find very nice to operate. That and the new K2 (QRP CW only so far) that I finished on Christmas Eve made for a very nice SKN. See you next year in SKN. ... Read More

    SKN '08 was great. I started with Les, SP3DOI, in Poland, on 80 meters; and followed with Tom, W9KTB; John, N5DY; Don, W2LID; and Bryan, KE4COH on 40 meters. Conditions were only fair, and I had trouble initially re-adjusting my key, but I managed to g... Read More
