East Point LH, PEI

Great qrp contacts all over the place there and great people at the lighthouse.. The former lighthousekeeper (sk) was also a ham. I found aluminium poles underneath the coffeeshop that I used to build the mast on the shoreline. Full size quarterwave verticals for 20, 40, 17 and swr ok for 15.. nice !


22NA 73!EU 12ON's and 107 qso's in total. Most of them 2 watt. See picassalink for more pictures.


I'm now on my way south to Truro in Nova Scotia and a little worries about the bad weather that's on it's way from the south (a hurricane btw). Normally I have some 2 weeks left to arrive in the Boston area which should be ok to cover the distance, also with the fierce headwind.
