Comments:
I did a search on the ARRL QST archive and found my first reported SS score was
in the 1961 contest, some 60+ years ago. Back then I made 160 QSOs in 48 of the
73 possible sections which interestingly included the Canal Zone (KZ5). I logged
26 hours of the maximum of 40 hours (spread over two weekends). The original SS
was in 1930, so I only missed the first 30 years of the 93 years of SS. With
that history it's no wonder I still get a thrill operating in SS today.
Especially when I can get a sweep. I had 83 sections worked on Saturday and
found NL and PR for the last two on Sunday.
K4, KPA1500, Mosley MP-33-N-WARC and 40M Inverted V both at 30 ft
