Played hooky from work today (skipped the company picnic) and activated SOTA peak W6/NC-209 (Sierra Morena). After a couple of navigation errors, it was a very short climb. I made three contacts on HF, including a summit-to-summit, then begged on the local wide-coverage repeater (N6NFI) for some 2m simplex contacts on my HT. Got a small pileup and three more QSOs to finish the activation. Now it is time to unpack and plug the KX3 back into the shack and KXPA100.

This is exactly why I bought a KX3.

But I do need to get out the cheat sheet out in order to get the KXPA100 cabling correct. I really should label those cables.
