Good Evening everyone....nice to take a break from politics, etc.
On tonight's AO-51 QRP pass at 2330z pass, I was using my ever-faithful Icom 2AT as an uplink. At 1 watt, I was pretty amazed at how good it sounded in the downlink...and was able to work Drew, KO4MA, Dave, VP9/G1OCN in Bermuda, and Paul, N2BX.
Tomorrow night's pass I'll be trying the low power setting: 100mW.
