This was the 1st WQ6X Cinco de contest operation running QRP.
Having access to KN6NBT's "Cliffside" location on top of the mountain
in Ramona made QRP operation a reality. Many stations had trouble believing
I was really a QRP station. Having access to a 3-el Stepp-IR, a 2-el
Shorty-40 and a double-Bazooka on 80 (all at 50 feet) allowed me to point
the antennas giving the 5-watt signal just enough oomph to be heard
domestically, altho numerous DX calls were also received on the high bands.
Internet dropouts prolly accounted for my voice sounding choppy sometimes.
The BiG problem came Sunday afternoon when most of the NEQP stations
moved down to 40-meters, which does us NO GOOD on the left coast.
We see the SPOTs and WEEP. C'mon Guys, give us a break.
Nevertheless, I submit a log for EVERY contest,
just in case other W6 stations don't.
