CCF Meeting 2004
Ari OH5DX and Pasi OH2IW has contacted me in Nov 2003, just before WW CW trip to TS7N, asking me to give some presentation at CCF meeing in January 2004. After several conversations with them and some other friends in Japan, I decided to prepare two presentations which were suggested by Pasi.
With kind cooperations by Yoichi JP1NWZ for KH0AA, Aki JI3ERV for AH2R and many contesters in Japan, I am confident my presentations of - KH0AA vs AH2R, M/2 WW SSB 2003 - Contesting in Japan were interesting for the audience.The meeting was opened with MC by Miika OH2BAD "Oh ! too Bad!" | |
