SOAPBOX: But QRP still hurts. Not sure how much more of this QRP SOAPBOX: contesting I plan to do. SOAPBOX: SOAPBOX: I could do more with better low band antennas. I would also SOAPBOX: score higher if I did less "DXing" on high bands and run up SOAPBOX: a larger QSO total on the low bands. Since I enjoy chasing SOAPBOX: zones and countries it was more fun to do it the way I did. SOAPBOX: SOAPBOX: One thing you learn about your fellow contesters when running SOAPBOX: QRP is just how generous they are with their time to pull SOAPBOX: you through. Even the biggest multi-multis and ops in rare SOAPBOX: mults will sacrifice their high rates to get me into the log. SOAPBOX: Perhaps the best example I encountered was TA3D on 40 who SOAPBOX: spent 2 minutes struggling to copy my call when a European SOAPBOX: dropped his CQ machine on frequency. Yasar tried to chase SOAPBOX: him off but to no avail. He finally sent a few "hi"s my SOAPBOX: way and had to abandon the frequency. I think we both saw the SOAPBOX: humour of the experience. SOAPBOX: SOAPBOX: One thing I need is a keyboard with bigger function keys. The SOAPBOX: lap top I use has half sized function keys that are easy to SOAPBOX: miss when I get tired. There is also a "multimedia" touch bar SOAPBOX: just above the row of function keys that if accidentally SOAPBOX: touched can lock up the PC for 30 seconds while it tries to SOAPBOX: play a non-existent DVD. SOAPBOX: SOAPBOX: In the shack: KX3 (5 watts); N1MM+ SOAPBOX: 20 to 10 - Explorer 14 @15 meters SOAPBOX: 40 to 10 - Inverted vee @14 meters SOAPBOX: 80 - loaded half sloper SOAPBOX: 160 - wet noodle NAME: Ron Schwartz CREATED-BY: N1MM Logger+ 0.19.4312.0 ...
