Another fun camping trip came to an end at Emily Provincial Park. Between enjoying the park trails and some fun on the water, I did little POTA operating in the evenings on 40, 30 and 20 meters CW and SSB. Bands usually started to fade after 0200z and QRN was taking over. My setup was mainly the same as usual, IC-7000 w/LDG tuner, T2FD antenna and N1mm for logging running abt 100 watts. At the beginning of the Late Shift (POTA 0000z - 0400z) pile ups started like I was a rare DX station but managed to get through most. Maybe some got tired of waiting and moved on. I had some difficulties logging using flash light as only light source because forgot to bring a pwr supply for my overhead LED lights but got through all of that and ended up with over 500 QSOs for the week. If you have never done POTA as an Activator or Hunter, should give it a try. It's all fun and number of hunters and activators is growing. Check out the https://parksontheair.com/
