I had no idea Santa had a
CW station near the
Arctic Circle. Much to my surprise, I heard him transmitting on the
10 meter band this morning. His helper was
OF9X in
Muonia Lapland Finland, who, by the way, was a courteous 'ol fellow who actually adjusted the jolly 'ol beam a bit to pick out my 3 watt signal from West Virginia.
What a nice Christmas gift for me!
This "
Official Santa Claus HQ Station" was a joy to work, and at
4,159 miles, with 3 watts of power, qualifies for a jolly 'ol "
1000 miles per watt" contact.
Here's a link to the "Official Radio Station":

He's a good
CW operator!

Hello John, I did not see this entry before, so I thought that you were joking about the Santa QSO. Hi. Well done. 73, Bert
