Hooray! My first activation
It was fun and challenging. I got out to the island by 9 am before it got too hot, and set up at a picnic shelter near Lady Finger Point. I configured the portable vertical antenna that I built recently for 20 meters. I'm still not a great CW operator, but I wanted to do POTA CW. After 7 contacts I was pretty wiped out from the stress of it all. I went to SSB for one contact, and then came back to CW for two more. With 10 contacts, I called it a day after working at it for an hour.
