[TVARC] NAQP CW K2PS Single Op LP

[K2PS Pete Stafford]

Thanks all.  Glad to see others got on yesterday.  I could have used a QSO with any of you, especially on 20 or 10 meters – no FL stations worked on those bands!

 

I did need to shut down for about 40 minutes during the contest due to the lightening storm, which came really close to my place.  Was having a good run at the time, too.

 

73, Pete, K2PS

Great job guys. You are all my heroes! 

 

I managed 79 Contacts in 30 States, plus NS and ON in Canada, NP2X in The Virgin Islands,  and Costa Rica ( I worked them on both 20 and 40). I only worked on 20 and 40 meters for the duration. Not too bad, running my IC-7300 at 100 watts into an OCF Vertical Flagpole.

Nice job.  Marty and I were at NP2B QTH and I heard you running on 20, but after John hooked up a paddle, you were gone.  

 

Marty and I both worked the contest for only a limited time due to other activities.  She had 50 contacts on 40. I worked 15 and 20 in the afternoon to avoid her.  I used a Dunestar 600 all band HF Bandpass Filter on loan from NP2B and it worked great.  Without it I get a lot of interference from WB2VYK.  I worked 27 states but of course I can’t  submit that to TVARC due to my unauthorized QTH J.  When we got home late I decided to check out 80 and it was great.  160 had limited activity.
