@N4JAW well done , Jim!!!

@qrper I turned on my radio when I came home for lunch today when you were on 20 meters, however I didn't even see any activity on 14.074 (FT8) on the scope. Did we have another solar flare hit?

qrper, 14 days ago

@Josefius Yes. It was an arduous activation. I logged 11 contacts in 1.5 hours. Likely will only release this (nearly 2 hour) video for Patrons because YouTube commenters would eat it up since they're looking for a quick look at the X6200. Was not the best day to test it, but I did indeed learn some stuff. Thank you for trying to work me. It was crazy.

Heading out for some early morning #pota #parksontheair fun. Did I read something about a Severe Geomagnetic Storm Watch? ☹️ #solarcycle25 #geomagneticstorm #solarflares #AmateurRado #hamradio

@N4JAW Teri always takes nice photos and describes all of the nuances of her activations. I love reading them, too.

Expected weird 20 meter band conditions during #Mclass #solarflare while doing a #QRP #morsecode #pota #Parksontheair activation along the shores of the flooded #ohioriver along the #lewisandclarknationalhistoricaltrail US-4572 #Amateurradio #hamradio

@N4JAW Thank you for trying. I had to keep it much shorter than I wanted. Forgot that my daughter had an appointment! :)

A break in the storms gave me a little time for a 1/2 hour #ragchew #QSO with a fellow @skccgroup member on 40 meters with the #ft891 and #bencher #straightkey #amateurradio #hamradio #morsecode

@N4JAW A little rag chew every once in a while is good for the soul! :) @skccgroup

@N4JAW I was so pleased when you moved to 20M and I was able to hear N4JAW popping through the ether! One of those rare times a prop window is open between us! Woo hoo!

@davealvarado Thank you. I need to over-size the vertical dimension. I'll get on that!

braydenwise, 10 months ago to amateurradio

Well, I guess I'm jumping in. Just bought a HT radio. Should have it next week, in time for my exam! #AmateurRadio #HamRadio

@VE2UWY @AE4WX @braydenwise @va3db Thank you for the kind words!
Also, yes, @N4JAW is a legend and POTA hero! :)

This is what I call my doctor's office visit #hamradio #amateurradio #qrp #qrpradio #qcxmini #cwoperator #morsecode kit. #pota #parksontheair site K-7956 is less than a mile from my endocrinologist office. Depending on smoke from Canada will hopefully activate today after appointment.

@N4JAW Brilliant kit, Jim!
