Working TDY for two weeks in Wise County, Virginia. Operated QRP at the Holiday
Inn in Norton, VA, parked parallel 10 feet on the northside of a two-story hotel
brick building, surrounded by hills and mountains. Vehicle pointed ENE.

I was not planning to operate on Saturday; just wanted to check out the noise
level on the various bands. But, at 2350z, I made my first 20cw QSO with W1DMD
before closing stn at 0231z with 24 Q's (20cw, 20ssb, 40cw) on a "scratch" paper
log.

FT-897D transceiver operated at 5 watts into a Hustler mobile antenna system
(RM-20 & RM-40 resonators) mounted on a Diamond K-400 near the top of the left
rear door of a 15-psgr club wagon. Rig power provided by a stand-alone AGM
battery. Heil Pro-Set Plus headset. Tigertronics SignaLink SL-1 sound card radio
interface. microHAM USB rig interface. Dell Latitude laptop powered by a
300-watt inverter. WriteLog 10.53e.
