    Dave,
    That's what I thought. Wasn't sure if working them all on one band had anything to do with it.

    The Certs come out REMAKABLY fast!!! I was Astonished last year how fast mine came in. The day it came in I went over to Office Depot and bought a beautiful Wood Frame for it. Will do the same this year

    Just need k2l and k2e. I already have the wm3pen bonus. If you only work a few you will still get a certificate, and if you work all 13 you get a clean sweep. Took about two months for me to get my cert. last year but they are on till the 7th. Good luck guys. kg5drv..Dale..austin tx

    I was astonished at some of the pileups I CRACKED!!! My antenna must work better than I thought. I would like to put up a big beam that covers all the WARC besides 20,15 and 10. But it hasta have as good of gain as the KT34 does. My KT34 has a Wonderful match on 13.7 Megs!!!

    I have all but one! My QTH in Eastern PA (just North of Philadelphia) seems to make all K2I (New Jersey) impossible to work on SSB. I sat in the 40m pile up for 2 hours! Heard every call to them but could not hear them at all! VERY frustrating. Anyone else in this proximity have this problem? -I hope they do some SSB 80 or 160 before this is over!
