Isn't it a blast, when the first one is in the log?
Now, many more to come. Even some that may stretch into chats and
getting to know more about the folks on the other key.
Maybe we'll meet one day soon,
Best hunting,

I'll jump on the end of this and report that I made my first
contact as a General during last week's Spartan Sprint, after
about a week or more of calling CQ in the evening. WA6AZP
was calling CQ CQ SP pretty fast and it took me several rounds
to a) copy his sign completely and b) get over my nerves enough
to answer with my KX-1.
Between the fairly strong QSB and my poor antenna, he never heard
my repeated QRS, so we went several more rounds before I got
a strong "R R R" from him. He went on with the contest and
I shut down and went into the house to calm my nerves :-)
I'm working on my antenna setup now, looking for that second contact ...
perhaps it will be more than 10 miles away!
