To double tap my lacking mobile park lookup skills, both parks had been activated plenty with CW. I also learned how to properly sort the previous activations based on type. 😅
“Was that a call sign?” 😂😂😂 I thought the exact same thing! Well I’m never growing my mustache out again… Fun to check off some states on the activation side. So far I just have Utah and Ohio. You’re such a great op getting instant pileups like that maybe I can get a lesson some time. Sorry bro Cali is warm. Utah is way colder come activate this winter with me we’ll go skiing.
If only I could keep the pileups. Maybe my "east coast friends" will help me with a pileup. Happy my wife let me try to activate every state we went to. I'll forgo her calling me Mr. 1000 for a short period of time as a measure of thanks. I think I would not survive a Utah skiing trip. I'd be QRB. Quite Really Broken. My upper lip would be warm though.
I do listen to CW streams while--yesterday I heard Kentucky do "BK" and today Forrest did "POTA". And I could hear how you did slow down for a newbie, THANKS.
Oh, just you wait...after a few 95 degree days with 100% humidity you'll be eating those words 😂 Actually those days are miserable, but I'll take 'em over the cold any day. Every time I see you use that Ashi paddle I have to resist the temptation to buy one. Listening to you talk about chasing a toddler around while driving cross country, camping and POTAing makes me really tired... Nice activation OM! Not sure how much I'll be able to hunt you now, VA is really hard for me to hit. Also, since you'll be an east coaster now, are you planning to hit Hamvention in May?
I'm going strong so far! The only thing I'm already tired of are the mosquitos. Walk outside and they swarm my ankles. They itch as I'm typing this... Rest assured, N6ARA is out of stock for both red and blue, so you can avoid it longer. Yea... Ballpark about 400-500 miles apart is a tad close for most bands. Maybe we'll get luck one day and 40 or 20 will work out. Fingers crossed. We'll see what the boss says about Hamvention. It's an ~8 hour drive from here. I drug her to Pacificon twice and HamConZion once, so she should be used to hamfests by now.
Wonderful video. I mostly rag chew on CW. I would be interested to see the various camping set ups. I operate remote from a skyscraper at 3AM. Would love to get a pile up. I use many of the POTA set ups on the balcony at work. Building antennas and portable operation challenging and interesting. 73 Bill KG4FXG
Once I'm all moved in to the new house I'm planning on doing a video about the various setups I used while crossing the country. Rag chewing on CW is something I haven't done. I'm a little scared to be honest, lol.

Thanks for watching! Everyone is a newbie to someone else, I'm always happy to work someone going slower.
