2020 ARRL June VHF Contest
My son, Jason (currently studying for his technician), and I headed up to the northwest corner of FM19 to a mountain in WPA on Saturday morning. The weather was perfect with temperatures in the mid-60's during setup. After making a few phone contacts on 6m, 2m and 70cm, I switched over to FT8 on 6m. It was almost nonstop from there on out on 6m, only taking a few breaks every once in a while to make a few contacts on 2m. Contacts were consistently made on 6m up until around 2am EDT when things slowed significantly and I decided to catch a few hours of sleep in the back of the truck. When starting again around 6am EDT, the action on 6m continued for the remainder of the contest. We only stopped to ensure we didn't have to disassemble and pack up in the dark.
