[NLRS] WN1C ARRL September VHF 2025

[Thomas Murphy]

It was back to my usual portable activating plan,  after skipping June, 
at Blue Mount State Park and summit references: US-1441, KFF-1441, and 
W9/WI-010. Summer was back in Wisconsin with conditions mostly sunny and 
warm for my operating periods. I could have been out in the field 
earlier for this two-day operating adventure, but this year's September 
was worth it picking up new somewhat-local callsigns. No major openings, 
but I was able to better understand how my equipment works in this setup.

Equipment was KX3 with homebrew 6m full-wave rectangular loop, FT-818 
and KG-UV8T with Elk 2M/440L5 and homebrew copper pipe 222 Moxon, and 
TH-350 with stock tri-band whip. Again! A solid setup I'm now 
well-practiced with.

ARRL-VHF-SEP Single Operator, Portable, Analog Only
Raw Score: 42 Qpts x 15 Mults = 630

Transcribed from paper and deduped by the log uploader (accidental and 
intentional dupes in there because cross-day and POTA differentiation 
between SSB and FM). Four bands SSB/FM and about 13 hours of on time. 
Compare to last year's September final score of 190 is a solid improvement!
