CQWW 160M CW CONTEST - POST CONTEST REPORT
- ZL6QH Quartz Hill User Group
- Last year's spectacular propagation (according to ZL6QH contest lore) clearly didn't eventuate this year. Summer static was a problem at times, and our score is down 50% of last year's.

2006 annual summer open day and BBQ
- ZL6QH Quartz Hill User Group
- The 2006 annual summer open day and BBQ was held on 15 January. Quartz Hill lived up to its reputation and turned on a brisk and cool northerly wind, so it was not the best day for bathing in the sun! Howver this did not deter 27 people, including four children, who made the pilgramage to the event.
