Comments:
This was another WQ6X portable operation from W7AYT's QTH in Concord.
This weekend's event was fun, but there seemed to be a dearth of signals,
especially on 15-meters. What was MOST surprising from this receive signal
vortex location was a relatively lengthy opening to Europe on 20 meters
around Sunday noon.
The Yaesu FT-1000mp ran FULL DUTY 100 watt RTTY w/o breaking a sweat - one
of things I like about the massive transceiver - an excellent quiet FAN
along with a massive heat sink system.
An RFI problem with from the 8JK-Cobra feedline, relegated 40 & 20 meter
operation be run using a radialed CH-250 vertical. Luckily the 8JK worked
FB on 80 meters. Rotating the 3-el Long John yagi on 10-meters while calling
CQ produced NO QSO on 10-meters - Bummer Dewd.
