ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

K5QE Multi-Op EM31: Operators K5QE, N5NU, N1XS, N5YA, AE5VB, K5MQ, W4KXY, K7RSM.

KG7HQ Hilltopper CN88: Operated three plus hours from Chuckanut Mountain, Larabee State Park, WA.(CN88SP46) @ 1998 ft above Sea level. Single Operator Equipment: FT-857D @ 5W, PBox 21Ah Battery, 2 Element 6M Yagi (Buddibeam), 4 element 2M Yagi (Cushcraft), Single mast mounted @ 15 ft. Modes used: A1A & J3E. Notes: Station deployed and operational within 15 minutes of arriving on site. The 5 watt limitation provided some frustration in that 6 meters opened to the Southeast but stations could hear the weak transmission. Local contact challenges were additionally difficult but when using mixed mode (CW Xmit/SSB Rec) I was able to gain an additional four stations. Public exposure to amateur radio was gained by answering questions of passer-by's and handing out business cards to those who showed interest in the hobby. This made for a nice exposure event. 73 de Michael - KG7HQ

W7GLF SOAB CN87: Lots of fun playing with new FT8 Mode.

KD7UO SOAB CN97: Quartz Mountain WA CN97

N6ZE SOAB CN87: Classic ops: used SSB, but seems I need to modernize with JT8!!! Nice to have some 6m Es this time. Worked 1 new grid on 2m and several on 6m from my northern part time QTH. Rig FT991, Cushcraft 7 element two meter yagi and ancient Lunenberg HiPar 3 element "Hilltopper" for six meters. My CN87tw QTH overlooks the Puget Sound from an elevation of 500 ft. Unlike most other entrants, I wore a heavy shirt most of the time due to 60 degrees F and some wind - a far cry from Las Vegas's 116F!

WW7D/R Rover CN76 CN77 CN85 CN86 CN87 CN88 CN96 CN97 CN98: This was a fun one.  The full story is at http://tinyurl.com/WW7D2017CQWWVHF

KX7L SOAB CN87: A nice Es opening to the east was a great way to start the contest!  Looks like FT8 is the new kid in town - saw more  activity on 50.313 than on ssb at times.  Now if the contest software would just support the new mode a little more conveniently. Thanks for all the QSO's!
