What a super day!! This was a joint expedition with Rich, NU6T, who
operated his KX3 on SSB on 20 and 15. K6DGW QRP CW 20m Bald Mtn W6/SN-047 4 pts [4,613 ft] QSO: 21 x SPC: (10 + Summits: 8) -------- 378 x3=1,134 final score [we were on a registered SOTA summit worth a 3x multiplier] K2+AlexLoop 4Ah 4S1P LiFePO4 battery WX: Fantastic! Mid 70's in shade, warmer in sun, light breeze, clear. Quite a bit of pine pollen. :-( Almost worked a JA, couldn't quite complete. Great breakfast in Georgetown, late lunch/early dinner in Cool [that's the name of a little town not far from here. Metropolitan Greenwood is about half way between Cool and Georgetown. Bumper sticker there: "GREENWOOD -- Beyond Cool!"] The Sierra foothills are laced with a variety of historic trails [and gold mines], probably the most famous is the Western States Trail which originally ran from Salt Lake City to Sacramento. It's across the Middle Fork of the American River from Bald Mtn so we don't claim "close to a trail," not that it would have changed the score. I live 1/4 mile from the original transcontinental railroad [now Union Pacific], and a mile from the Lincoln Highway/US40, so "Happy Trails" was a really great theme! Really fun time, great to get outside for some "Field Therapy" as Rich puts it. Thanks to the organizers, about as perfect a radio day in the field as it could get 73, Fred K6DGW - Northern California Contest Club - CU in the 2013 Cal QSO Party 5-6 Oct 2013 - www.cqp.org __._,_.___ Reply via web post <http://groups.yahoo.com/group/nasota/post;_ylc=X3oDMTJyYzhmMmEyBF9TAzk3MzU5NzE0BGdycElkAzU4NjQxMDYzBGdycHNwSWQDMTcwNTA2MzEwOARtc2dJZAMxMzU0MgRzZWMDZnRyBHNsawNycGx5BHN0aW1lAzEzNjcxMTA3MDg-?act=reply&messageNum=13542> Reply to sender <mailto:[hidden email]?subject=Re%3A%20K6DGW%20QRPTTF> Reply to group <mailto:[hidden email]?subject=Re%3A%20K6DGW%20QRPTTF> Start a New Topic <http://groups.yahoo.com/group/nasota/post;_ylc=X3oDMTJmYWNkZW84BF9TAzk3MzU5NzE0BGdycElkAzU4NjQxMDYzBGdycHNwSWQDMTcwNTA2MzEwOARzZWMDZnRyBHNsawNudHBjBHN0aW1lAzEzNjcxMTA3MDg-> Messages in this topic <http://groups.yahoo.com/group/nasota/message/13542;_ylc=X3oDMTM3Ymc3ZTNoBF9TAzk3MzU5NzE0BGdycElkAzU4NjQxMDYzBGdycHNwSWQDMTcwNTA2MzEwOARtc2dJZAMxMzU0MgRzZWMDZnRyBHNsawN2dHBjBHN0aW1lAzEzNjcxMTA3MDgEdHBjSWQDMTM1NDI-> (1) Recent Activity: * New Members <http://groups.yahoo.com/group/nasota/members;_ylc=X3oDMTJnbGxxN241BF9TAzk3MzU5NzE0BGdycElkAzU4NjQxMDYzBGdycHNwSWQDMTcwNTA2MzEwOARzZWMDdnRsBHNsawN2bWJycwRzdGltZQMxMzY3MTEwNzA4?o=6> 3 * New Files <http://groups.yahoo.com/group/nasota/files;_ylc=X3oDMTJoMHQ5ZDJxBF9TAzk3MzU5NzE0BGdycElkAzU4NjQxMDYzBGdycHNwSWQDMTcwNTA2MzEwOARzZWMDdnRsBHNsawN2ZmlsZXMEc3RpbWUDMTM2NzExMDcwOA--> 1 Visit Your Group <http://groups.yahoo.com/group/nasota;_ylc=X3oDMTJmZDlsZWR2BF9TAzk3MzU5NzE0BGdycElkAzU4NjQxMDYzBGdycHNwSWQDMTcwNTA2MzEwOARzZWMDdnRsBHNsawN2Z2hwBHN0aW1lAzEzNjcxMTA3MDg-> MARKETPLACE ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Yahoo!
