On 05 Aug 1994, I was getting ready to turn twenty years old and the life of John K3WWP would forever be changed and in doing so in my opinion history within the brotherhood of QRP enthusiasts history would be written. This day John started a streak of making at least one QRP CW QSO a day, every single day. To date, he is at 9,920 days in a row! Here is a screenshot of the table on his blog that shows the current status of his streak for the past 10 days.
Every day John updates his blog and shows the world that he is actually continuing the streak and not just making it up. He is proving that you don't need a Killabuck Rig running 1,500 watts into a yagi at 200 feet in the air. You can get on a small QRP CW radio with a small wire antenna and have a QSO regardless of the sunspots, propagation, weather, position of the moon compared to Arcturus etc.
So check out The K3WWP Blog and read the great history and achievements of the streak. Perhaps it will inspire you to start a streak of your own.
