On my first portable operation, I put my Small Wonders Labs PSK-20 (a 20M 5W transceiver fixed tuned to the PSK subband), a MacBook, a SignaLink, a battery, a dipole, and a Thermarester portable chair into a backpack and hiked about a mile up into the Sierra Azul open space district above Los Gatos, CA.

I found a lovely site overlooking the valley with trees giving me about 15' elevation for the dipole. I had a fun afternoon making PSK contacts.
