Comments:
Thrilled to make a Sweep QRP. Surprised that EPA, WPA, NNJ, and SNJ were in
the last 10 worked. Very few NJ or PA stations heard all weekend. On the
other hand, there were LOTS of Canadians and KL7's. THANKS !
Low Band SSB with 5 Watts was TOUGH. Short skip on 20 was a blessing.
Even made a few backscatter contacts on the high bands.
My LOW TH7 (at 40 ft) was often 10 to 20 dB stronger into W1,2,3 than the
higher monobanders at 55 ft on 15 and 75 ft on 20.
