It is almost not fair

It's almost not fair

Back when I had low wires, and a 600 watt amp (on a good day), a station from say Brazil would come on the air, and it would take me 10-20 minutes of hard work to get a QSO, if I was lucky

Tonight PY6KY pops up on 40m ssb. Now he's on LOTW, and I don't have Brazil confirmed on 40m. Turn on the rig, turn on the amp, tune the antenna, turn it and one call, and we're done

I'm actually starting to do a lot more work withthe amp off
