While looking for something else, I found my first-ever contest log!
1986 CQWW CW - 40M SOSB HP=20
Hours of operation: 18-1/2
Score: 104 x (24 + 47) =3D 20,235
Heathkit SB104
Heathkit Warrior Amplifier
Ground Plane vertical
Homebrew keyer (and paddle, too)
My best hour was 9 QSOs....my prior 25 years as a ham did not prepare
me for this new and exciting experience.
Only 3 callsigns are the same in this year's log: JA2YKA, JA7YAA and
UA6LTI, but lots more simply have different calls or moved to new QTHs.
Nostalgic 73s,
Gary, K9AY
