I have heard several different people and groups making the suggestion that a good New Years resolution would be to  make at least one contact on the air every day this year.  Sounds like an admirable goal to me.  While I can accomplish that goal on VHF/UHF right now I would also like to be able to say that I made at least one HF contact each day.  This probably isn't going to start happening until the spring for me as my HF station is off the air right now and the antennas are down.  I also plan once back on line to also make sure I at least call CQ on 6 and 10 meters every day.

So even though I can't "do as I say" right now it won't stop me from encouraging you to take up the cause.  Give it some thought and if you have time invest the effort to pick up activity on all the bands.  I think you may be surprised at the results.  Remember, even though amateur radio exists for several serious causes no one ever said that it shouldn't be fun!
