[UK-CONTEST] Contesting - OLD style

[Roger Cooke]

Hi Y'all.

 I well remember going to NFD one year with a keyer I had just built. It had four memories in it!!!  I was accused of cheating and NFD was not for such things, using memories is not playing "cricket" etc.  

  Sooo, the only way to get round all this big linears, big antennas, modern rigs etc is to travel back in time. 

One communications RECEIVER will be allowed. The transmitter will be home made, run no more than 10 watts, measured DC input with an AVO 9. Keys will be straight only. Logs will be paper only, although a logger can be used. Antenna will be a dipole ONLY, at no more than 30ft high.

 Would that separate men from boys?   :-)
