Happy New Year everyone! In today’s mail the January 2010 issue of CQ Magazine arrived and I was scanning through it I noticed the results of the 2009 CQ WW WPX SSB contest from last March were published.  As I was flipping through the pages I was surprised to see in the US results that I was listed in 1st for the US Low Power Rookie category! A rookie is anyone who is licensed less then 3 years and I was first licensed in August 2007, so I have a few months left in my Rookie status.

I’m looking forward to another fun year of contesting in 2010 and it would be great to make a few more top 10 lists over the next year.  In about 30 mins the 2010 ARRL RTTY Round-Up is about to start and I’m getting everything setup for that now.

See you on the air!
