Comments:
If anyone had told me a week ago I could have this much fun running QRP from
Alaska, I'd have said they were nuts. I started at 5 watts just to test the
waters, thinking I would soon grow frustrated and go with a LP entry.
Encouraged by the initial results, I stuck it out at QRP. NL7YL's CW QRP AK
record has stood since 1991, and I crushed it. Another KL QRP might beat me
this year, but the basic score was very gratifying. I could work just about
everyone I could hear. I even had some brief runs. Conditions were far from
spectacular, especially lacking EU. Laboring under some disadvantage with
tri-banders no longer horizontal after a month of back-to-back ice and wind
storms, it's good to know the station still has some competitive standing. The
QSO count exceeds my lifetime QRP achievement by two orders of magnitude. I
can't complain about that. Thanks to all.
