Tom,

Sorry I didn't come across you this weekend.  I ran 1E from the home 
station using a battery and running 5 watts.  Some SSB and some CW, 
mostly on 40 and 80.   My friend N4PN in Macon, GA was surprised how 
loud I was with 5 watts on 40 SSB this morning, but of course there were 
plenty of stations that didn't hear me.

Didn't do a full time thing and only made about 40 QSO's, but enjoyed it.

73, Steve KW3A
