  1. #qrp magic with the Icom #IC705. Logged a staggering 13,459 km #qso to NP4L in Puerto Rico on 20m CW using just 5 W!

    Also had fantastic contacts with Scotland (MM0GOR) & Sakhalin Island, Russia (R0FBC). It’s amazing what a small transceiver, low power, & efficient antennas can achieve.

  2. Successful lunch break PLOTA activation (Parking Lots on the Air) on 10 meter FT8! Tho I did have to take an extra half hour to reach ten QSOs 😉.

    First outing with the QMX+ and a cable I made with an in-line buck converter to use a regular 13.8V battery.

    Session included one QSO in Ontario, a new grid in Argentina, and two new states (CT, ME). From Raleigh with 4 watts and a whip!
