Happy Birthday Canada!
This is another ad-HOC WQ6X remote operation of Station #1 @ NX6T in Fallbrook.
To make things easy, the amplifier was set to 1300 watts and the antennas
pointed more-or-less North to North-east.
I was pleasantly overwhelmed by the actual number of VE8, VE9, VY1 & VO
stations on the air this weekend. Where are these stations during Sweepstakes
and the IARU GiGs?
I ran Station #1 @ NX6T (an Elecraft K3 into an ACOM 2000a at about 1300 watts).
Available antennas included a C-31 Yagi and 2-el Shorty 40, plus inverted Vees
for 80 and 160 - antennas 13mh.
Poor air conditioning required I run the last 3 hours at about 550 watts.
For the most part I don't think anyone noticed the 5db difference.
Look for a writeup about this event in an upcoming WQ6X Contest BLOG Entry:
