A pretty good RFTB tonite. 80m. was nil but 20 & 40 were OK here in the WNY pigpen. 14 hogs & sows worked with a stray SST QSO. My pig-Rig is an IC-7000 at 5w. into a G5RV up 25 ft. w/ a brass straight key pig-caller. Keep warm in your barn piggies ! 72
WB0CJB, Paul, 5 fpqso=7 fpdxqso=0 nonfpqso=0 spc=6 total=126
The first hour of the RFTB was really tough due to the last hour of the DX contest. I did work KA2KGP on 20/40, as well as KI8FV on 8OM, and KT4WA, N5GW, W0ITT, and AA2YO on 40M. The rig is a IC7300 and the antenna is a Hustler 6BTV vertical.
Thanks to all! 72 OO de Paul WB0CJB

Not the best night for a QRP contest. Too much competition. Things got a little better after 7 pm EST. Thanks to fellow piggies KA2KGP, N5GW, WD9EGW, KI8FV and WB0CJB for the contacts. WB0CJB contact was iffy as his signal faded to almost nothing at the end.
WD9EGW, Chuck, 5W fpqso=4 fpdxqso=0 nonfpqso=0 spc=3 total=36
Thanks to KA2KGP on 20 and 40, AA2YO, and W0ITT for the QSOs.
I was running 5 watts to an MC750 vertical on the back deck.
See you next event.

Had fun but only had a short time. I had trouble finding FP stations, I kept hearing SST. I called CQ on 160 but no responses. I need to build up my CQ courage. I'll sneak away from the wife for a longer time next month. Lol
