Comments:

I went to the Bahamas to volunteer in the Pure Silk Bahamas LPGA Classic golf
tournament.  I applied for a license and was granted C6ADM, so I took my KX3
and a spool of wire with me.  My fervent hope was that I would have enough of a
signal to work at least one of my brothers in the contest.  I was able to work a
few stations in the CWT Wednesday evening, including AA3B on 80M, so I had hopes
of working at least someone on 160M Friday evening.  HAH!  I heard lots of loud
stations, the loudest of which was C6AGU.  It took me three tries to get
through to him, so I knew I was in trouble.  No one else could copy me.  Then
my batteries died.  Undaunted, I went out and bought a new set.  I found Peter
(K3ZM), but he never heard me.  I found Jeff (VY2ZM), but he never heard me. 
Even the loud Caribbean stations never heard me.  Then my batteries died. 
Enough!  Next time I will take a small power supply and more wire.
