[Mldxcc] I got one too! (was Re: 10 Meter Contest 2015)

[Emileigh Starbrook]

I barely remember being in the contest last year, I think I set up my
Buddipole in the last minute.  I took 1st in the CT Section in Mixed, which
technically is my first contest using CW where I made a mark of any kind.

I have to thank Steve K6SCA bunches for that because had he not invited me
to that first MLDXCC meeting I would not have seen the presentation on CW
for non-CW operators.  After that I started to refine my understanding of
the CW signal and how to set up my radio.  It worked well enough to have
over 230K Points in CQWW SOAB LP this year and I am still using the ZS6BKW
Verne gave me (though I built another one and put them at right angles.)

So thanks Steve and everyone for their encouragement in my short time
living in the MLDXCC sphere.

Cheers and Happy Holidays to all!
