Comments:

Probably a 3 month break at OH3BCX... The FT-990 
was erratic, so I took the old IC-736. With these 
old rigs the problem is the lack of Noise Reduction, 
so most QSO's were at very low S/N-ratio, given this 
noisy industry environment. With the QSB it is a 
matter of luck to get one's own call-sign correlated 
to know the contact is running. Own CQ's are out of 
the question. Hopefully I will have the IC-7300 set 
up to run in ARRL DX SSB (probably at OH5XO's)...

14 MHz was the best band for the session, and I got 
power out from the LK-550Z. Suddenly I noticed time 
running out, so I went to 21 MHz, but had the fuse 
trip on the linear. Thus I only got time to work 
Mike F5PLC on basic IC-736 power. The antenna was 
the old vertical against the telephone pole and 
Dentron MT-3000A tuner (70 ft of foam CATV-coax).
