    I had so much fun this year, I had to force myself to get some sleep at 5AM. I started with the "Big Rig", 500W Navy TCK and RBB receiver, with Vibroplex Champion bug and copying on Underwood mill. When the mill ribbon wouldn't reverse, I got distrac... Read More

    As usual SKN was a blast. I only had time for 3 SKN QSOs, but they were all very enjoyable. The bonus was snagging my good friend Ken, WA8REI just as he was finishing up another SKN QSO on 40M. Ken and I had a really fun QSO. Not only did I torment him... Read More

    I sure had a ball. I used a J-38 and split radio-time between my Ten Tec Omni VI Plus and my Oldie-but-Goodie Kenwood TS-830S. The 830 drifts a little, so it made things seem even more like the good ol' days.

    SKN 2008 was enjoyable. I'm in a condo and ran 10 watts to an indoor "heli-rope" antenna from the June 71 QST. Made 3 contacts and each fist was good. My key was my faithful Lionel J38 .

    SKN-2008 was enjoyable, great fun. I had a choice of many straight keys from my collection. My choice of favorites was one of the best keys ever made, the hard to find AMPLIDAN marine straight key, the Pryce-Edwards NATO issue key, and several hand mad... Read More
