Homemade trailer ball hitch support for 11m pole.
RBN picked me up with strong sigs in USA at my sunset. A bunch of Yanks worked. Yay!
Always #N1MMlogger for the win.
Beefy #victronenergy Peakpowerpack LiFePO⁴ batt.
The FT-710 is an over-complex rig. Shoulda RTFM.
Lightweight paddles need fixing. Had to hold 'm with other hand.
Next /P iteration will be better.

I had planned to spend most of the evening on 40m working NA (to get some 6-point QSOs). I am glad I stayed so long on 15m and then 20m because when I eventually went to 40m there were mostly EU stations (2-point QSOs).

Since I am not that experienced on choosing the right band, I rely on information from The Available Mults and Qs Window to help me decide. We have recently starting to use N1MM Logger+ so I am learning feature by feature.

It's windows .NET based and tested so running it on another OS is 'all bets off'.
I stick to windows and avoid 'the unknown'.

I don't know if there is a platform-independent or Linux-centered logging software that has everything #n1mmlogger has?

@vk6flab has "open source" and "multi OS" as requirements, and I rather agree.

#n1mmlogger pretty much has the functionality needed, but needs fiddling with WINE to run on Linux and isn't open source.

Several years ago, I lost some two hours of a IARU HF CC extracting info out of a N1MM+WINE installation's database, when that installation had crashed and would not start, before continuing with CQRLog (not a good contest logger at that time and still isn't).

N1MMLogger!?

@KC1PRD If you plan to do more contests, N1MMLogger is the platinum standard. Makes the right files for all purposes.
Check it out (if you feel like it).
