Have always been interested in the competive side of hobbys, got interested in contesting about ten years ago.

The big problem was trying the read the handwriting after thank God for keyboards.

Waiting for the lights to go green, and call CQ.

Well success is relative, success is if everything stays going for the duration, if one can stay awake, if the computer doesn't crash, if one can get a good score, and above all its the enjoyment, the greatest thrill was the 99 ARRL with EI8IR having worked all 50 US states on 20 meters at 15.20

The ARRL and CQWW.

Improve low band antennas.

Is there such a thing ? One can take part with a simple bit of wire and a rig, it is no trouble, and very easy to improve on, perhaps a budget station is 100 watts and a A3.

Get involved in the big contests start off by working the big ones first, and set yourself a goal of say working 50 or 100 countrys or in the ARRL try working the 50 US states.
