[CQ-Contest] W3Y Youth on the air YDXA

[Tim Duffy]

Yesterday here at K3LR, the David Kalter KB8OCP Youth DX Adventure was held.
Nine hours of four youth operators all under the age of 18 with their
parents -  making contacts all over the world during the IOTA contest. They
had no experience with contesting and no experience with WinTest (K3LR
station logging program). All QSOs were by the 4 youth operators.

 

They had a special callsign, W3Y, for YDXA - the pileups were incredible -
Over 2000 QSOs!
