Good show Scott. My first contest was in 1961, it was the Novice Roundup.
I made twelve contacts ... in a WEEK.

> I had planned to do a SOSB 10M effort, but "got the fever" and couldn't
> wait for daylight. I pulled out the 100W TS-160, put it on 20M and
started
> going to town. During the day I used the 25W HTX-10 on 10M. All of the
> contacts were made in a Mobile operation mode (sometimes moving, mostly
> stationary) with a Hustler MO-2 and appropriate resonator magnetically
> attached to the roof of my mini van (vertical clearance 12'4"). Since I
