Welcome to the Two Rivers Contest Club

KL2R Shack

After nearly four years of operations, KL2R has added over about 22,000 QSOs to our log. Thanks to everyone. It's always a pleasure to work you, whether once or a hundred times. We like to operate.

The shack PCs run Windows 2000 Professional for its relative stability and ease of administration. We use Win-Test and N1MM, including the MMTTY plug-in, for contesting. DXLab Suite is the main toolbox. Ham Radio Deluxe and DM780 are also used for casual contacts, especially PSK31.

A Yaesu FT-950 serves as the main rig. Digital modes are proven on the MicroKeyer using N1MM, HRD, and DXLab Suite. Win-Test no longer proves problematic with the MMTTY engine, and version 4.x is a dream to use. A few RTTY and PSK efforts have been a lot of fun. We have had good showings in digital contests, Sweepstakes, CQ contests, and ARRL DX! FT-950 and FT-100, Microham USBIII, DX Doubler, plus 80-10m bandpass filters make M2 and SO2R possible.
