VHF contesting is different than HF contesting. And microwave
contesting is different than VHF contesting. Definitely does not
satisfy the rate itch, but the splendid variety of kinds of
propagation in play and trying to make paths work provide a different
form of entertainment.
I was running about +6 dBm conducted output power and roughly 12 dB
NF, very QRP. 26x28 inch dish makes up for a lot of that. I roved a
circuit of small, fast to drive up hills in SD county meeting the
minimum move requirement and relied on the other ops to move between
the days/weekends. Would be fun to try a premium location like
Frazier.
Thanks to all of the ops (including a few from SCCC) for all of the
QSOs and QSO attempts.
Best regards,
Drew
