March 6, 2002 to present

I was able to make a few good DX contacts a some good rag chew contacts.  Ham radio is really fun and I am really glad I decided to get back into this.

Read the note from K7MOS, it is a little interesting.

I liked my contact with VE7DRC.  He was using a new bug and he was a little frustrated with it.  I was able to relate because I recently got my first set of paddles and had a rough time getting used to it.

There are some real fun contacts in this log.
