SOTA started 19 years ago today. This mean that this time next year, SOTA will be 20 years old. Probably need to start thinking about some awards for SOTA’s 20th Anniversary next year, however I still need to make a claim on my awards achieved during SOTA’s 10th Anniversary in 2012.

Who was first to put in a log and who was the first Chaser.

Maybe G6NWT for the 1st chaser. I can’t access the DB with my management tools from my work PC. I would need to go home to check. i.e. walk from the kitchen to the shack! I’ll look later.
Me too Barry I’m afraid. Got quite a few to catch up with 
Better ask the Chancellor to increase his expectations of the size of the National Debt
