operations by K1TR, K1RX and K1DG.


Club Affiliation: YCCC


Various Rantings:

92% of the Q's were from Europe, according to CT.  Worked a grand
total of 4 JA's.  Never heard a KL7.

For the first time ever, I think, every single piece of equipment
functioned flawlessly for the full 48 hours.

My first try at single-op, all band.  I'd done some single-band
stuff, but mostly it's been M/S and M/2.  Operated about 45 hours.

First time using 2 radios.  Next time, I'll try to add some
mult passing to the mix.

Chose to pass up the brief 15M opening Sunday; my home on 14002
was just too productive to leave.  Probably a mistake.

Look for us in SSB signing K1RX....

Paul, NX1H
