I sort of intuited that but felt expressing the mode in the post would clarify to those that are not as savvy as to rig vs mode. I've been a CW op for 66 years and only have dabbled in SSB, FM & digit

Stating the rig implies the mode. The one you quoted is with a QCX, and is therefore CW.

I love all these "distance" posts, but most leave out the mode used, digital or the other digital CW. 73, W2BEE

A bit off topic since this was not done with a QRP-Labs kit, but, anyway: Slow CW TX on 20 meters, 14.10111 MHz. Three 74HC00 gates in parallel as "PA", the fourth gate is used for keying. 5mW output

It's kinda amusing when the Russian DX with the 7 element monoband yagi on 20m asks what type of antenna you are using for your 10W SSB QSO. Well a 1/4 wave ground mounted vertical, sir! :). All on yo
