Comments:

Due to family responsibilities, I had very little time to operate & my home
QTH is in a valley surrounded by mountains. Therefore, I used my short
operating period to be a masochist portable station entry: QRP on a minor
hilltop in the middle of the valley surrounded by mountains! 
I used an FT817 with whip for 6m/2m/70cm bands & an ALINCO DJ-G-29 handheld
with whip for 135cm/33cm. For the 32km path between N6ZE/6 and WA6EJO, it was
necessary to use a small 33cm yagi to make the contact.

Most QSOs were with members of the Ventura County Amateur Radio Society

I carried all equipment to the operating site in a red plastic bucket. I coined
the title, "5 Bands in a Bucket" for this quickie portable operation
which demonstrates how easily a temporary station can be set up in the field.
