Hi Steve, Thanks for the narrative on the signals. It's interesting that you could copy all those stations. Guess that just goes to show, not all antennas are truly reciprocal, hi. How long was

(W0AV) from OH. borders. If they N3MK, W3ASA, Jay - Using the grids published in HamCall, it's 1207 km from you to W0AV, 1187 to W5KEC, and 1019 to N3UYI. But Don has you beat. It's 1506 km

Hi Jay and the group, That was a blast. Thanks for the great contest Jay and Bernie. I had a grand total of 6 contacts on low power, hi hi Tnx to N3UYI, KB4JKQ, AA8QQ, K3PSK, W0AV and WB6BWZ. I came

How did you push that much power without blowin up the rig? Don

Hey Jay, are you in the 100W or 50W category? There is a 2x power multi for 50W so don't forget to add the multi. And I think you are supposed to add a multiplier for a US contact. I came up with

It looks like MD to MO (W0AV) was my longest contact. Don N3MK

Good to work you, Steve. I worked W7TVF in Nevada from Washington (State), and NI6T in California, all QRP. Can't believe someone hasn't bettered that by a bunch.... Bill W7QQ

I noticed that QPSK seems to work MUCH better on 160 meters than BPSK. I had a QSO with QQ on QPSK and copy went to 100% from about 75%. Don

Well I'll come out of the woodwork . . . it was a bit slow "warming up" as I began later than expected on Ten meters . . . making only a few contacts on each band until Great Pumpkin time . . . made

I had a tough time hearing on this one, I had a loud buzz on the band and couldn't locate the source...then there was that KW CW station that must have been next door hi hi.. I managed to work AA8QQ,

SO who made the longest contact? I worked from Idaho all the way to Washington. (the State) Can anyone beat that? Well I went portable with a 160m Dipole. I had a great time and ready to try

Worked two, W3ASA and WM2U tnx. Heard real good signals from K3VOA, N3MK and AA8QQ but they didn't hear me. Oh well, there's always next time.. 73, Lee WB2YAF

Kenwood foldback circuitry, hi. 73, Jay - AA8QQ

Hi Don, Nope. I gotta claim 100w category. I bumped it up for a couple QSO's to 60 w. Also called CQ at 90w trying my double loop, albeit with no success. Also, yeah, I counted W for a DX as per

Hi All, My longest QSO had to be either AL (N3UYI), AR (W5KEC), or MO (W0AV) from OH. It's about the same DX to each states closest and farthest borders. If they can could send me their grids, I

Boy that was a lot of work for 6 contacts, hi hi Tnx, N3UYI, KB4JKQ, AA8QQ, K3PSK, W0AV and WB6BWZ. Then at 11:30 my time, the rig said, "That's enough, I'm hot and tired!". I think it was a circuit

Hi All, This was GREAT!!!! What a blast, PSK31 on 160 meters. Didn't know how many people would show up. Looks like about 20 or so. That's almost twice what I expected. Sounds like everyone had

ZIP ZERO NADA THE HOOP! The band was quiet in Minnesota last night - too quiet HI HI! Well, there is always next year. Congrats to those who found life on 160M last night. I can honestly say I saw

I guess a couple of watts into an 80m inverted v just a few feet off the ground isn't enough to get very far out of my own backyard. I can hear N3MK and AA8QQ just fine, and WB5NHL occasionally,
