[PaQSO] QRP

[wgbuch@earthlink.net]

At K8SYH/3 we made quite a few QRP QSOs that weren't discovered until we
changed bands. To use the automatic tuner (an SGC) we had to switch to CW
mode, then throttle the IC706 down to low power. In the heat of battle we
more than once forgot to crank the power back to high and made plenty of
QRP contacts. We had an Argosy sitting in the truck. Maybe next year we'll
use it. 

Many thanks to all the courteous ops in this contest. I've been a ham for
42 years and this is the most fun I've ever had in any competitive activity.

73,
