Power Output: 5 watts     Hours of operation: 24

Equipment Description:
Two IC-765s, output set to 5W
Ants:
  80m: 2 el Quad, apex at 115'
  40m: Create 714X-3 Tribander (3 el on 40m) at 120'
  15 and 20m: TH7 at 60', sometimes with the 714X-3 at 120'

Its kind of nutty to choose QRP at the bottom of the sunspot cycle; the 
low bands can be so cruel on small signals.  But with the help of N6BV's
2 el 80m Quad and high 40m Yagi, I held my own with 5 Watts.  
Never heard VE8 or VE2.  Heard a VE1 on 20m backscatter but he didn't
hear me!  Thanks to great Ops like N7NG (Wyo.) and W1WEF/KH6 for
picking out my puny signals through the big piles.

Thanks to my host Dean, N6BV/1, for allowing me to pilot his station
again.  It was a blast!
