It seems to be a failing battle, but I'd love to make some SSB and CW QSOs
using traditional SSB and CW.

Yes, yes, FT8 gets you more grids.

But how fun is it?

I'll be on 2m mostly at W2SZ, FN32jp at 3491 ASL, running 1500w to some
very-long-boom
yagis.  We can work OH on an average day on SSB/CW tropo, and if any
enhancement we
can do a lot better.

Yah, we will be on FT8 as well.   However, I know a lot of you love the
traditional analog modes
as well.   Plus, it takes like 5 seconds to make an SSB QSO!

Look for me 144.170 +/-.   I'm happy to take skeds for other bands, as we
are on DC-Daylight
as usual.

73,

Gerry W1VE/VE1RM
