Comments:
I was pleased to get to the W6YX station for NS,
first time for the winter ladder! After "Low Power" in
the RTTY Roundup at NN7SS, I was hankering to get
back to QRP, so I turned down the RF OUT and gave it
a go. Luckily there were some locals on 20m for 2 QSOs.
On 40m I heard far more participants than I could work,
I was out of practice and out of sync - sorry! When I
went to 80m, I had problems finding the right
antennas on the switch box - some antennas might
have been rearranged for last weekends contest. But I
found something with an SWR less than 10:1 and made some
contacts. Not surprising for QRP 5 watts, a lot of people
didn't hear me. A GOOD EARS AWARD to Bud VA7ST! I saved two
minutes for 160m and surprising for QRP worked three QSOs!
Thanks for the fun!
K6UFO Mork!
