Blog report to follow with lots of snaps and narrative of our adventure.
It’s a huge amount of work to prep, setup and takedown for what is essentially an FD outing. It’s a little bit of a gamble as to the ROI but this time round if was a very rewarding adventure.
This is my third CQP with Scott N6MI and we were partnered up in 2020 by Dean N6DE as I hit the jackpot in reserving W6E ages earlier than CQP 2020 SEQUOIA challenge being announced and hence us a “call sign of interest”. History may repeat itself and so 3 years on and the call is still in use.
10m being open seemed to nab a lot of takers who might never participate in a contest given 10s novelty value of being open after so many years dormant.
Fun and thanks to N6MI (Scott) and N7DA (Drew) my team mates this year.

Comments:
We camped 3 nights at 8,000 ft in the Los Padres Forest just north of Los
Angeles in Ventura County.
I operated from my Jeep using a K3s/KAT500/KPA500 package along with a HexBeam
for 10/15/20 and a Buckmaster OCF for 80/40. Many improvements to my station
versus 2020 but still struggled with a few things. Biggest mistake was not
installing a DVR in the K3s and hence calling CQ for 12 hours.
Scott's station is well documented and has a 60ft mast with a 10/15/20 multi
element antenna.
Having Drew N7DA as a third operator working between the two stations was key to
making the almost 2,100 Qs.
10m was an eye opener and thrilled we nabbed 368 10m voice Qs and 600 overall.
