Marty, N6VI wrote of Wayne, "“Wayne Overbeck N6NB had been licensed for over 68 years and developed an early interest in weak-signal VHF and UHF operation. As K6YNB, he began mountain-topping on both the west and east coasts in a camper truck outfitted with radios, antennas and amplifiers (the “Cabover Kilowatt”) and, by 1980, had a dozen national first-place finishes in VHF + contests, setting scoring records that were never broken under the pre-grid scoring system. During that span, with help from Will Anderson AA6DD, Wayne designed and built the inexpensive and easy-to-reproduce Quagi antenna for several VHF and UHF bands as well as a vehicle-mounted 2-meter EME (moon bounce) array that he took to Alaska and other rare states. While continuing to win contests and set scoring records, Wayne was elected ARRL Southwestern Division Vice Director, serving the members for sixteen years.

When the FCC began their study of RF exposure, Wayne took Dr. Robert Cleveland around to several Amateur Radio stations in Southern California for measurement of RF field strengths in a variety of installations. Subsequent to the exposure rules being published, Wayne developed RF Exposure software, which was tested and approved by the Commission, to allow Hams to accurately determine their stations’ compliance with the new rules.

In the early 2000’s, Wayne started building microwave-capable rover stations and loaned them out to other contesters, attracting more of them to ten-and eleven-band roving in VHF-and-up contests. In the process, both Wayne and the Southern California Contest Club racked up dozens of national first-place finishes. Wayne generously shared his experience in building and modifying portable stations with others to stimulate ongoing activity.

It wasn't just contests, though, that captured Wayne’s interest. He set his sights on microwave distance records as well. He personally explored the tropospheric ducts that formed each summer between Hawaii and the California coast. In 2015, with a portable station and a rental car, he drove up and down the Kamehameha Highway on the Big Island until he found the sweet spot and proceeded to set terrestrial distance records with Greg Campbell W6IT on 2304 and 3456 MHz.

Wayne received ARRL Technical Excellence Award in 1977 and was honored as Radio Amateur of the Year at the Dayton Hamvention in 1980. He also received the John Chambers Memorial Award from the Central States VHF Society twice: first in 1978, and again in 2015. Professionally, Wayne held a Ph.D. and J.D. and was a professor of communications law at California State University Fullerton. He is survived by his wife Carrie W6TAI and his daughter Laura.”

Welcome aboard to new member, Jeff, K6JW. Jeff lives in Palos Verdes Peninsula. He says that he's mostly a casual contester and more of a DXer. He prefers CW but operates the other modes as well. Jeff was first licensed in 1958.

The CQ WPX CW contest is this month, perhaps the last major contest of the "2024-2025 contest season. Don't miss out on the the ongoing great conditions as we continue at or near the peak of Sunspot Cycle 25!

The CW WPX SSB contest took place in late March and we had a pretty good Club turn out. Here are some of the comments posted by SCCC members.

Barry, N6VOH worked the contest with a 132 foot long wire doublet and a 40m vertical. He did mostly S&P and had a couple of good runs on 15. He thought band conditions were just okay. He noted that many DX stations had very big numbers. Bruce, WA7BNM was single band 10m and thought conditions were down compared to recent DX contests. He heard few or no eastern Europeans and zero Zone 20 stations. He struggled to work EU/AF stations that he said are usually easy. Bill, W8QZA (as W6QU) was QRP as usual and said conditions were good but not great. He had trouble getting into Europe on Saturday but things were much better on Sunday. His best Q was FT8TZ on 10 meters. At 4:30 am local time on Saturday, he found a number of Europeans on 20m and he was able to work a few of them. John, W6JBR was happy to have been able to play in this contest with excellent conditions of late. He had a lot of EU coming through in the mornings but not many JAs later when he was on. Larry, K6RO was single band 10m and reported poor conditions on Sunday. Marko, N5ZO (NT6Q) was remote into WA6TQT. No equipment failures this year (last year he experienced a failed amp). He felt that conditions were down from last year but he still recorded a higher score this time.

Cliff, K3LL had a goal of completing 80m DXCC and he feels he did so. Bill, N7VM said that he spent more time trimming the avocado trees than operating. Say what?! Dennis, N6KI was just playing around mostly, testing a 500 watt amp that he plans to add to one of his remote stations. He said that 15m was great. Leo, KO6GSH did his second contest of his young contest career. His goal was to win 1st place in the SOAB LP Rookie W6 category. His biggest takeaway was to study more about propagation and understand what times are best for which band. He said that he had a lot of fun! Bill, N6RV had his amp fail on him earlier in the week. He said that there were nice openings on 20 ,15 and 10 meters.

The raw results of the contest have been published by the contest committee. Bud, AA3B, Director, CQ WPX Contest says, "The raw scores are calculated prior to log checking. This should give participants a good indication of their category placement at the World, Continent, or Country level. Score reductions of 2% to 15% (or more) are possible, so the log checking process must be completed before final results are announced." View the raw scores here.

While cleaning out some things in the garage over the weekend, I found a handful of old Club Bulletins (SCCCORE) that we did not have posted on the website! These filled in many of the gaps and are now added to the Historical page here on our website.

Long time SCCC member Dick, W6TK has moved to Oregon. He doesn't have the tower and station up yet but is working on it. The new tower base goes in soon and he has pulled the radio and shack computer out of the packing box. He hopes to be back on the air soon!

Eric, NC6K is getting ready to move too. He will have 2.5 acres in Colorado but with an HOA, so antennas will be a bit more limited than he has now.

Strange but true...
It's baseball season! 25 year old Harold Arlin voiced the first radio broadcast of an MLB game (Philadelphia vs. Pittsburgh) on KDKA radio on August 5, 1921. He used a modified telephone as a microphone. The following day, he did the first ever broadcast of a tennis match, a Davis Cub match. Two months later he added the first ever broadcast of a college football game to his resume.

FOR SALE 1. Optibeam OB15-7 HF Yagi This is a 15-element 7-band yagi (40-10 including all WARC bands). The weight is 165 lbs and the boom is 22’. I’ve used this as my primary antenna for the past two years (replaced SteppIR DB-18E) and you can check 3830scores.com to see how well I’ve done with it in contests. I would gladly buy it again or take it with me if I could have a tower in the new QTH. It’s has as good or better performance than the SteppIR, doesn’t have any moving parts or constant mechanical issues, and you can change bands instantly without waiting for the tape to move (or get stuck). I paid $4599 plus tax and shipping in April 2023 and the antenna is basically like new. I’ll sell it for $2500 plus shipping if you don’t pick it up. N6KI is going to come over in a week or two with his crew to take the tower and if you’re interested in the OB15-7, you can come by then or sooner to check out the antenna (it’s still in place). If you want it, we can partially disassemble it so you can transport it and you can probably get it back together and OTA in a weekend or less. I’m glad to send photos too if you don’t want to come up to Poway. 2. eAntenna DY-Mini4B Yagi This is a compact 4-band (40, 20, 15 and 10) yagi with a 12.5’ boom. It works very nicely as a 2nd antenna for contesting and if you put it on a tower (mine’s on a push-up mast for SO2R), it will perform nicely. I paid $1499 plus tax and shipping a few years ago (not more than 4), and will let it go for $750 plus shipping if you don’t pick it up. 3. Microham SMΩRF Vector Signal/Power Meter Works great but needs one or two new sensor cables (they’re basically micro-coax with SMA connectors). Comes with two sensors (one HF and one HF/VHF). Price is $500 plus shipping if you don’t pick it up.
