Comments:

Started a little late due to some last-minute computer updates. Bought a
fiberglass mast for this contest and MFJ didn't include the quick clamps, so I
had to use hose clamps with some rubber. Built an antenna sled that I used in my
truck for this contest, worked quite well. Began each morning from a couple
spots on Lily Mountain (1600-1930ft).  Activated six grids first time I didn't
head out to CM86. First day drove down to Kettleman City and then to the
Grapevine. Second day was a little more casual, drove down to Chowchilla, then
to Madera, and came back home. Not a lot of people on the air this time around
but was able to get one contact in DN17 on 6m. Just bought a new FT-991a which
was a big upgrade from my FT-100. Ran 100 watts to a moxon on 6m, 25 watts into
a mag mount vertical for 1.25m, 50 watts to an Elk LPDA on 2m/70cm. In June I'm
going to try and run some loops so I can make SSB contacts while driving.
