[PaQSO] Fwd: PaQP WN4AFP Single Op LP

[Dave Edmonds]

HI PAQP,

Thanks for putting on a very strong QSO Party! I couldn't give this one a
full-time effort, like I wanted to due to a family party today... I
returned around 2100z to work at least one full hour today.

I was planning to run QRP, but I immediately realized that it was going to
be very difficult for me to reach PA using QRP on 40m. .

>From South Carolina the only bands that I could use to reach PA were 40m
and 80m. 40m was usable to PA all day on Saturday and I hate that I missed
the 'all day on 40m opportunity on Sunday.

Special thanks to  the mobiles and rovers who helped me with 12-13
counties, Tough to work the mobiles on Saturday.. Sigs were better on
Sunday. By the way, there were a lot of fixed stations 'running' in the
mobile window. I worked the following mobiles... N2CU, W3CG, K0BAK and
NR3C. If there were more mobiles out there, I didn't hear them.

I was able to work W3C on Sunday morning on cw and Sunday afternoon on
phone. I didn't hear W3C on 40m on Saturday, don't know if they were on or
not.

I log manually (because I enjoy the pen & paper./keyer mode) then enter the
Qs into N3FJP. I worked a few county-lines so I hope that N3FJP allows me
to enter all of the counties. I worked KB3SGY on Clarion, Jefferson and
Armstrong. I most of the QPs, there would be logged as separate QSOs, but I
guess this would be tricky due to the use of the serial number in the
exchange.

It was great to work several fellow QPers and to make new PA friends.

Next year, I'm planning to break the SC record and get a clean sweep!

Comments:

Another fun PAQP! Most of my hours were on Saturday. 20m was a bust for SC
to
PA, so I spent 90% on 40m and little 80m Saturday night. I was able to work
PA
all day on 40m. Thanks to the mobiles and rovers for their effort... Good
mix
of activity on cw and phone. Hope I can work it FT next year. 73s Dave
