View Log - Log of all contacts made
This contest is sponsored by the Arizona Scorpions QRP club. It is
a 4 hour contest that runs from noon to 4 PM in my time zone. I decided
to operate the contest at the last minute so I picked a spot that I could
get to pretty easily. Warrior Peak is right next to the hiway as you
drive from Bergen Park, CO to Mount Evans.
Conditions for the contest seemed poor andn I didn't hear a lot of stations. I ended up packing up after only about 2 hours and a good part of that time was spent wandering around enjoying the scenery!
This is the
northerly view from the operating site.
And the westerly
view.
My antenna was a dipole affixed to the top of a 33' fiberglass mast. If you look closely here, you can see how I supported the mast. I duct taped it to a handy tree... no other supports... just tape!
Here's the antenna.
My operating
position.
Just a cool
old tree nearby.
