      Thanks, Kevin. Even when the bands aren't great, you can still get 'er done with QRP SSB!

      Thanks! I’ll get there. It’ll just take some time. But I’ve got great Elmers, like Vince.

    Thanks for the video, I wasn't aware of the CA-0063, and have contacted POTA and I am in the process of updating my logs to reflect CA-0063 from trip to my sisters house for the eclipse in April, so I have 4 days of logs and another park from my homeland on my account. Tnx for the 40m AM activation the other weekend from NY to MI! 73 de HZ

      Awesome to get you in the log on AM! Vince picked the park, so I never checked to see if it was a 2fer. I only found out when I got there. You should have no problem uploading previous logs and getting credit for them though.

    I am in the process of also trying to learn cw and my goal is to eventually be able to activate using cw

      Same here! It seems a lot of hams are getting into it. Good luck and don’t get discouraged.

    Mike, was there any indication of a possible Canadian invasion of the U.S.? (Asking for a friend). On a more serious note, hope you continue your working cw. 73 de n0km

      I think we're safe, LOL. in fact, I'm already looking into another trip, since it's only around a 90 minute drive for me to go over the border. Learning CW is definitely something on the to-do list too.
