Comments:
The contest was a lot of fun. I want to say special thanks to Joel W5ZN for letting us use his station. This is our first CW contest. Joel pushed us to try for this contest and we have been studying hard for a few months now and it was still very difficult. We were not allowed to use any computer aid for copying it was all by ear. We are not ready for the big leagues yet but we will defiantly keep practicing and improving.
