Working the world on 100 watts and a wire again! It doesn't have to be complicated.

Went out to US 1684 to activate today because someone on our local Discord needed it to complete Hunting Connecticut as one of the parks they needed.

A little background on the park: it's at about 50 feet above sea level and in a bowl with 400-foot cliffs on each side, and they're pretty much all rock.

Went out this morning setup my Xtenna 40m EFHW and brought my 857 go box.

20 was pretty good. Had some QSB maybe QRM after I went hunting on 15 meters. Glad I got on 20 earlier. I worked most of the US on 20/40 and then went hunting for DX on 15.

It's amazing what you can do portable... Even when the SFI is in the 90s and you're handicapped by terrain.
