Andrew built a 10M dipole antenna for a science project for school and since our G5RV came down, we decided to use the 10M dipole to run the contest. Conditions were great and the dipole, only up about 15 feet, worked quite well. We interspersed working the contest with visiting family so it wasn\u2019t a full-out effort, but we had fun.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_25952\" style=\"width: 594px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/hcra.org\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/12\/IMG_3953.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-25952\" class=\"size-large wp-image-25952\" src=\"https:\/\/hcra.org\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/12\/IMG_3953-1024x682.jpg\" alt=\"Andrew (KB1WPJ) operating during the 2014 10m Contest (NQ1C Photo)\" width=\"584\" height=\"388\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-25952\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Andrew (KB1WPJ) operating during the 2014 10m Contest (NQ1C Photo)<\/p><\/div>\n<p><strong>Ed (KB1NWH as W1NY):<\/strong>\u00a0Lots of great opening, not enough time for the chair<\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">Please Check Back For Updates!
