Comments:

When you have to look up the sub-band edges, you know you don't operate SSB very
often...., and what's this funny attachment on the headphones? Oh yeah, the
microphone. I didn't plan to operate in this one at all, but the radio lured me
in and it was fun on 15 and 10 meters to make a few Qs - in fact, 15 meters was
surprisingly open, but QRP was much easier with the +10 dB SNR advantage of CW.
My hat is off to those braver than I who operate this entire contest QRP! 
Thanks for the Qs, and maybe one day I'll have a real LP rig.  

73/72, Mike K8CN

Rig: K3 @ 5 Watts to Lazy H (cut for 20 meters) via Johnson Matchbox
