WC5DSO QRP ALLQRP to indoor Omni-directional Antenna is S&P with very little Pounce
WC7QMDFirst time using distributed mode operating from 4 different locations with diverse antennas from a single vertical to a 5 over 5 stack on a 150 foot tower. The conditions were very unusual with lots of noise and fading at times. Ten meters was almost non-existent from the Pacific NW. Obviously the money bands were 20, 15 and 40 with most of our time allotted to those bands. The stations used were as follows: Robin WA7CPA with a Elecraft K4 and Steppir vertical. Sam WC7Q with an Icom 7610 and 3 element Steppir at 60 feet. Rob N7QT with a Elecraft K4 and a 4 element Steppir at 100 feet. The use of Grant KZ1W gracious use of his fantastic Station was appreciated

WQ6XSO LP ALLThis is another WQ6X WPX dual-OP GiG from W7AYT's QTH in Concord, remote to NX6T @WA6TQT's QTH in Anza. Most of my OP time was spent remoting into the Anza location throughout the weekend. Occasionally, I would find time to put the FT-2000 on the air into a 3-el Long John Yagi for 10-meters and the classic WQ6X 8jK Cobra Sloper. Conditions were tolerable throughout the weekend with some amazing late night 20 & 15 meter openings. Unfortunately, on Sunday the SFI tanked down to 98. It hasn't been THAT low in WEEKS. LooK for a write-up on this GiG at: http://WQ6X.Blogspot.com

WS4CSO LP ALLFB condx = great fun! Had only a 30m ant to load up on 40, and for 20 and 15, only a fan dipole in the garage attic. And still with 100w was able to run stations at a rate of better than one per minute at times, and most of those were DX
