Comments:
Worked two hours from home on Saturday, HP.
Worked 5.5 hours Sunday mobile with usual Lid manual setup and a FT857/100W
with the basic Yaesu ATAS-120A screwdriver antenna on the trunk. Did all
logging on paper with a ballpoint pen, sent everything with the small Padlett
paddle, did all driving, was alone. It's a big rush to enter a new county and
hit the fresh pileup. Worked the new pileup from the side of the road, then
drove through the county and worked/sent/logged while driving until the next
county line. I don't recommend this. Will try to automate with PC and driver
next year. Great fun, though, but tiring. Operated from TRAV, HAYS, BLAN, GILL,
KERR, KEND, and COML counties as a mobile. Tnx to NO5W for great organizing, and
to quite a few stations outside Texas for super activity. Also, thanks to K8MFO
for consoling me when I got lost once, telling me "You're not lost, you're in
Texas." That got me set straight again, once I stopped laughing. Ain't CW fun?
73, Jim N3BB
