Comments:
(From AE0Q) Been trying to get Jeremy, a co-worker who got his Tech license last
year, hooked up with a SSB contest so he can see what HF contesting is all
about. We set up at K0HM's station (one radio, DVK, TRlog, tribander and 40m
beam) and gave Jeremy a baptism by fire!
(From KC0KLP)
The contest over the last weekend was my first HF contest. I have to admit I
had a great time. At first I was a little set back by the equipment and the
phonetics of the whole thing. After being pushed by Glenn(AE0Q) and Brad(K0HM),
I was soon S&P'ing (a new acronym for me). I started getting the feel of the
whole thing. After about 20 or so contacts, I was once again challenged by
Glenn to start CQ'ing (YAA) myself, what a blast! I struggled for about 20
contacts until I got in the rhythm of things. And plus every time I tried to
take a breath my faithful friend AE0Q would hit the CQ button on the Voice Keyer
(Thanks Glenn). I would like to thank AE0Q, K0HM, and Merri AB0MV and anyone
that got an interesting reply when I was just starting.
Thanks again,
Jeremy (KC0KLP)
