Comments:
I rented a nice place back in March for my CQP Expedition in Trinity County. 
 Less than 24 hours prior to my check-in time, I get an e-mail saying that the
place is now unavailable.  Boy, that was a possibility that I had not
considered.  I made arrangements to stay at another place that I had never been
to before.  When I arrived, I realized that operating from there was going to be
a challenge with high mountains all around, power lines nearby and the area for
my antennas would not be protected from local animals or guests.  I struggled to
make contacts on 10, 15 and 20.  Many of the stations I could hear could not
hear me, even though I was running 500 watts.  This was my first CQP experience
in the High Power category.  I didn't think that I would have trouble being
heard.  I love challenges but this one was more than I wanted.  Thanks for those
who worked extra hard to pull my signal out of the noise.
