Mouse Power! QRP SS from K 7 Mickey Mouse! Running shoulder to shoulder
with the B power stations on 10M was fun! Thanks to the Novices for all the
Q's.
What a difference a fortnight makes! Propagation was much improved over the
CW weekend.
MB was the tough section. I found a "Manitoba accent" voice on 20M, talked
him through the exchange for the sweep; thanks to Gordy at VE4OI! Later, I
worked good ol' VE4GVV for insurance on 40M. With the skip distances and
living in a low population area, northern Midwest stations beam to the east
coast and California, making it difficult for denizens of the "NW Black
Hole" to get the dreaded upper Midwest mults!
