Comments:
Plus one W3TDF bonus QSO.
PaQP is almost always a nice drive to see the fall colors, and this year was a
beautiful day for that, although the leaves have just started to change. And a
day to play radio as well. To get maximum exposure to the phone crowd in PAQP
we also stopped to operate with the 33 Foot HamStick in four of the more rare
counties. Since the PAQP rules don't allow rovers to make QSOs while moving, we
operated as W3USA while mobile and as K8MR when parked.
I skipped the full mobile setup with the four band Hustler system, and just
used two HamSticks while mobile. So no 15 or 10 meters. I also saved most of
the SSB operating while stopped.
All in all a pretty typical PAQP - lots of in state activity, not so much from
out of state. But still a fun trip for this Pennsylvania native.
On Saturday I'll be roving around the Finger Lakes during the daylight hours in
the New York QSO Party. Hope to work lots of you then!
73 - Jim K8MR
