[Icom] My first 60-meter contacts using the IC-703 QRP rig...

[Bill, N4QA]

Made the '60-meter transmit mod' to my '703 late last night and then I was 
off to bed.
Late this morning, I worked stations in Ohio and New Jersey on channel 
one...5330.500 KHz, 'phantom carrier freq', running the '703 at 5 watts 
p.e.p. to the 250-ft end-fed, 17-gauge, solid-aluminum wire, which is about 
15-ft above ground. The antenna seems to be working NVIS mode...we'll see 
how it does farther out tonight.


73.
