FT-950/TH6-80m Dipole/100-watts/Portable Operation â?" After working from CHAT
for a little bit of the afternoon decided to move to the second location in my
portable stops. This was by far the most rustic of all of them â?" in K4BAIâ??s
front yard! Thanks to John for offering the use of his antennas now I know how
he makes so many QSOâ??s in the contest that beam is AMAZING I have to get
something better than this MA5B at the house now <grin>!
This was actually the only instance of Mr. Murphy stopping by, enroute to Johns
QTH I stopped over at my house grabbed a quick shower thanks to smelling about
as bad as I did after Survival Week â?" it got a little warm out at the hide
site on Benning. But while I was home I fixed my power cable for my radio since
one of the connectors had come loose from the power supply side. I sat it on the
counter in the kitchen just prior to getting my shower. Got a call from Miss
Wessie (K4BAIâ??s XYL) letting me know she was back home and was expecting me I
ran out the door made it to his house started setting up and realized that I was
missing my power cable ran back to the house and grabbed the cable and was back
off to his house â?" thankfully it was his house and not out on Benning I would
have lost 2+ hours it was only about 1+ hour.
I finally got up on the air and everything worked amazingly having those big
beams over the top of me made for some great contacts â?" kind of wish I would
have went ahead and moved a lot earlier â?" I think I lost a lot of contacts
because of that decision since most everyone had already worked me from CHAT.
As the last few minutes closed in I seen John pull into the drive working his
last few contacts before the close â?" Perfect Timing.
Now I am waiting for the AL QSO Party and Field Day then I will be done with my
portable operations for the year â?" unless I get a wild hair and decide to run
down to FL. Also I apologize to everyone I confused with the callsign change
had to go back to my W1 Roots. ;)
