#Ham #Radio #ARRL #Contest
In this video I share some contesting during the November ARRL Sweepstakes phone. I was not in it to win it, but I enjoyed every minute of it. I also share some tips and tricks I personally like to do. If you’ve never contested before I encourage you to try one out and just grab a few call signs.
From ARRL:
2020 ARRL November Sweepstakes
arrl.org/sweepstakes
CW: First full weekend in November (November 7-9, 2020).
Phone: Third full weekend in November (November 21-23, 2020).
Contest Period: Begins 2100 UTC Saturday and runs through 0259 UTC Monday.
The ARRL’s annual November Sweepstakes is the oldest domestic contest, beginning in 1930.
Sweepstakes paused during World War II but came back stronger than ever. It’s a competition
between North American stations – individuals, teams, and clubs. For many US and Canadian
hams, it is their first contest operation and remains a regular event on their yearly schedule for a
lifetime. The contest is somewhat unique in that each station may only be contacted once and the
number of different recognized locations (“multipliers”) is limited to the ARRL and RAC
sections. Working all of the sections is called a “Clean Sweep” and allows the station to claim
one of the coveted Clean Sweep coffee mugs – there are other awards, as well.

Your Icom IC-705 can show your callsign on bootup/power on. It makes it a bit more personal and is a good way to identify your radio! In this #shorts video I show how to configure your 705 to do just that.
Also check out my other video on setting up the IC-705 for booting an opening picture!

My previous attempt at this never-activated summit, WE/SD-025, failed. I bailed at the base of the climb due to heavy brush. Today, I go back and try again. It’s cooler and I’m wearing heavy cotton clothing to help shield the scraping and shin-bashing of the manzanita, scrub oak, and sumac.
In my pack is a freshly modified MTR3B with the 17m band added where 30m used to be. I’m hoping for some DX. Let’s see if it works.
