Comments:

After 30 years running only qrp 5 watts, I tried LP 100 watts, realising maybe
life is too short for ONLY qrp. Now age soon 63. I have to admit it was fun. On
the high bands the difference was not high except for much easier to take and
keep a cq-frequency. But on 40 and 80 life was really much more convenient,
nobody had to ask for the call and report several times. It was almost too easy
but sure I will be in for at least LP in the next contest.
Rig: Kenwood TS-570D, 100 w
Antennas: Force 12 C3 beam, Inv. vee 2x20 20 m, Horizontal loop 130 m.
Using this rig was also a tribute to my father who died last year, age 91. He
was an SWL SM0-7032 and used this rig for listening. Now I proved that it could
be used as a tx as well.
