After solving this issue I was able to work 10 DXCCs in the last three days (EA ๐Ÿ‡ช๐Ÿ‡ธ , F ๐Ÿ‡ซ๐Ÿ‡ท , HA ๐Ÿ‡ญ๐Ÿ‡บ , I ๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡น , K ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ , OH ๐Ÿ‡ซ๐Ÿ‡ฎ , ON ๐Ÿ‡ง๐Ÿ‡ช , SV ๐Ÿ‡ฌ๐Ÿ‡ท , UA ๐Ÿ‡ท๐Ÿ‡บ , UA0 ๐Ÿ‡ท๐Ÿ‡บ ).

@hamchallenge My usual setup involves a suitcase with 2 pcs 18Ah LFP4s in parallel, along with some 3D printed bulkhead connectors. The suitcase acts as a makeshift desk #HC36S. I don't operate much from home, so these 6 hours were my whole day of operating.

I was surprised only 3 DXpeds were active, but a fourth DX, the ITU HQ was lurking on 18MHz. #HC07S. Working 10+ DXCCs is rather easy in FT8 from Europe, when you're being chased in #pota #HC37S

Let's try a 10fer for @hamchallenge :  

I went out today for POTA RO-0109 #HC29S in front of this communist mammoth #HC13S, operated all day on 36Ah #HC36S (ha!). I worked one DX, the ITU HQ, out of today's DXpeds PJ4M, VP8DPD and V73MT #HC07S, 14 DXCCs #HC37s, plus all xOTA #HC16S I heard. I had 20 contacts on CW #HC38S including @YO3AX and @G0TRT. I even heard F4JRC on 6m #HC28S. I fixed my audio card #HC45S and used the antenna I built with the YL #HC33S.

Details follow.
