E51NOU and K4M new on 40M, K4M new on 30M


Posted: October 21st, 2009 under DX, Dxpedition, Hamradio, Iota, Soundclips.

FT5GA worked for an all-time new – #324 total


Posted: September 23rd, 2009 under Contesting, DX, Dxpedition, Hamradio.

The past weekend I was at the LA8W/LN8W station. The rotator had stopped working for the 20M/15M tower. Since I am the only one that dares to climb the tower, I was the obvious choice. After a few hours up in the tower, the problem was fixed. Turns out it was a few loose connectors [...]
