[Mldxcc] AF6SA KK6VIX ARRL VHF

[Stefan Stefanov]

Operated with my son Alex / KK6VIX from Leek Springs lookout
7600ft ASL in Two Operators Single Station (Dad/Son) mode.
Started Saturday at noon. Site has some RFI (birdies/hash) on 6M from Solar
power. WX changed quickly  from sunny to heavy rain/thunderstorm,
forcing us to operate inside the car and we left at 5:30.
Antennae:
6M: 3el DK7ZB Yagi
2M/432: 5+8el DK7ZB dual band Yagi
TRX: IC-7100
Power: Solar / Battery
We need a rotor!!!
Login / operating two call signs on one PC and one station is a challenge.
Tried the new FT8 mode and made 2 additional 6M contacts Sunday from home.
