All the old NFD result articles are in the RadCom/Bulletin CDs. Just 
looking at the 1960 results - there were an incredible 108 club 
entrants! The winners were the Stamford club (are they still around? I 
see G3KHZ was one of the ops). Real rigs appear, like BC342's and 
CR100's, no transceivers in sight! And it took over 6 pages of the 
Bull. Those were the days!
