I was thinking of doing it running 5 watts to be in the QRP class, using
my KX2 with the Elecraft version of the W6MMA screwdriver antenna (the
Elecraft grey paint obviously contains some fine mojo). I'm less mobile
than I used to be but I can easily mount it to one of the handles of my
walker and strap a paddle to the other handle with a zip tie. Now, if
only the weather will cooperate (doubtful).

Hi all,
Our local weather looks good for the weekend, so I’m going to ditch the home
station for CQ WW CW this year and do it entirely on the hoof with the KX2 and
a whip. (There probably isn’t a entry class for this. Oh well....) I did this
for a short time last year and made several EU contacts at 10 W.
If anyone else does this, I’d love to compare results.
This is one of the best CW events of the year. I encourage everyone to at least
drop in for a couple of hours. Here’s the link:
