  • K1NV and TS-940S

    01/05/2008 | K1NV

    No heat in the hamshack, but adding a small space heater helped a lot. I made a total of five quality CW contacts on 80 meters where the action was hot and heavy. KI6ZX, K5RDD, K2A/2, K7TPD, and VE7DWG all helped me ring out the old year. I didn't m... Read More

    Had a blast with SKN this year using some real vintage equipment from the estate of W2KKH which I restored this past fall. Gear is Utah Jr. TX putting out about 12 watts and an early table rack HRO Sr. Antenna used was a Butternut HF2V vertical ground ... Read More

    Really enjoyed SKN again this year. This was also a great way to celebrate 50 years in amateur radio! So many memories come back every SKN such as the contacts using my Heatkit DX-20 transmitter and BC-358 with knife switch for T/R changeover. Same sou... Read More

  • AN/PRC-1 Spy Radio Set

    01/04/2008 | K9VKY

    Once again a wonderful time was had during SKN. Band conditions were especially erratic on 40M where a number of ragchewing stations simply disappeared with propagation changes. The PRC-1 spy radio receiver left a lot to be desired on 40M as well. 80M... Read More

  • Waiting for that lazy op to restore me for a future SKN

    01/04/2008 | K5BZH

    Band conditions in Amarillo, TX left a bit to be desired, but it was still a fun event. I worked 11 stations that were scattered out in 8 states. Average time per contact was a little over 18 minutes. As in previous years, I did a lot of listening, sim... Read More

  • <i>Home brew Amplidan with Micrometer</i>

    01/04/2008 | NT9K

    SKN 2008 was a blast. This is my favorite ARRL event. The first QSO of the evening was with Sean, the new Contest Manager operating as W1AW. I worked lots of SKCC members and even a few operating the special event callsign K2A commemorating the 2nd Ann... Read More
