Comments:
40-50 watts into a flat-top 40 metre dipole at 40 feet, grudgingly tuned by the
Mark V's internal tuner...My LDG AT-1000 Auto tuner wouldn't touch it...Those
who heard me obviously have decent RX antennas because I wasn't putting out
much of a signal...My ERP was likely close to 4-5 watts...I think Iowa was the
farthest station worked..!!...I could hear many stations that didn't hear a
peep out of me...Lots of "?" and "AGN"...Now I know why I never enter the QRP
category of contests...hi
Oh well, fun anyway...One of these years I'll finish the Inverted-L here on the
floor and have a semi-decent antenna...
Thanks for the patience of those who managed to hear me...
73, Scott VE1OP
