Comments:
This was an experimental operation from W7AYT's QTH in Concord.
My time was divided between running Cw remotely (via an Elecraft
K3/0) to NX6T in Fallbrook and running as K6C (Kilowatt Six California)
from Contra Costa county (CCOS).
While the noise levels were HIGH in Fallbrook, it was relatively quiet
in CCOS; then again, the signals were rather quiet as well.
Running mixed mode, I was QUITE disappointed in the lack of hearable
SSB stations, altho they had to be there somewhere as there are hundreds
in NX6T's log.
Running SO2-V allowed running CW (RX-A) and Ssb (RX-B) thanks to an old
classic FT-1000mp. I called CQ on EACH band; first on Cw, then Ssb, then
back to Cw before moving on to the next band.
Antennas: CH-250 vertical, WQ6X Lazy 8JK Sloper, a single-Cobra Sloper
and the Hy-Gain 3-el Long John for 10-meters. Hopefully in a couple of
years that Long John will be put to some good use.
