Various Contest Certificates and Achievement Awards

Some contest certificates and awards.  I'm a small station on a city lot with a wire dipole which was used to earn most of these certificates.  In 2020 I finally added a Hex Beam at 25 feet.  Most of my more serious efforts was 2011 - 2016 which goes to show you can do well with a very small station.  My best performances below were #2 5th Call Area in the 2011 CQ WPX CW Contest and also #3 in the 5th Call Area in 2016, same contest.  Lots of great contesters and big gun stations in Texas so hard to compete with those guys but you can see below it is still rewarding!
