I made about 20 QSO's in the RTTY Roundup on Sunday afternoon after
figuring up how to
hookup the interface again. Heard N4GG on 20 meters but he couldn't hear me
!! One of these
days I will have to try one of these RTTY contests seriously... The activity
sounded really good.
On Sunday, I also participated in the Kids Day contest. My 3 kids - Andrew
, 6 1/2 , Randy , 5 and
Rebecca, 2 years old all operated. It was a struggle to keep them from
fighting over the
microphone !! I think we made about 20 contacts on 20 meter SSB. After the
first few contacts
both Andrew and Randy didn't even need coaching from dad on the exchange -
name -age and
favorite color. Maybe they are budding contesters !!
John, K4BAI stopped by on Saturday and we worked on networking the laptop
computers for our
PJ4R trip in February. The kids always enjoy it when John visits.
Have a nice weekend and hope to work everyone in NAQP CW...
