The popular myth is that HF bands are dead and useless. With just under 24 hrs of afternoon operation, the students had a total of 1011 QSO’s. We worked 48 states, 7 Canadian provinces, 19 DX countries, 20 clubs and 58 schools. Total points are 408,444.

All of this was accomplished with our IC-7300 driving a 500w Elecraft KPA-500. The antenna was our standard $5 Home Depot wire inverted vee. Most operations were on 20M with an occasional move to 40M using the same inverted vee jumpered for 40.
