Happy #SupportYourParks #POTA weekend. I am on the air from CN84 land. Planning to do a mix of digital and phone today. Lovely weather here in the PNW this morning.

Looks like I'm in business with my mobile setup at PA1ST. Hopefully I get some time to do a #POTA activation.

The FT-897 is running from a cigarette lighter outlet. Keeping the power at 30W will keep the current drain below 8 amps.

I just worked 5 stations in Israël (4Z5SL, 4X9HQ, 4Z4OQ, 4X6HU, and (of course!) 4X1ST) on 15m with it so I declare it's working. 😊

That’s a wrap - 9H/DG5CW is now QRT! 🤫
After 4 POTA activations, 124 QSOs across 29 countries (quite impressive to see on the map what the little QMX can achieve 🥰), and several kilometers hiked through Malta's stunning landscape ⛰️, I’m heading home. ✈️
I can definitely recommend Malta for any QRP and POTA enthusiasts looking for great views and even better RF. 🙏

Enjoyed another perfect 40-min POTA activation at MT-0024 today with the QMX and whip! The weather and RF conditions were both flawless, netting 36 contacts and a bit of a tan to go with them. 🌞
Huge thanks to all the hunters for opening their ears to my QRP signals.
