W7QC
I tuned to 30M and heard W7QC Bill in Issaquah, WA on 10.122 and we had a nice QSO until the band faded. 0025Z-0049Z. Bill remembered that we had worked before in the WA QSO Party. Bill was using an IC 756 at 100w into a 160M inverted vee, but has a K1, a KX1, and a K2! I was running 10W until QSB and then ran 30W on the K5OOR amp. Bill gave me a 599 when I was QRP and I gave him 579-599QSB. Bill is looking forward to watching the Seahawks make their way to the Superbowl and he and his sons plan to watch the game. Bill was formerly W7VMF but got his father's call when he became an SK. Bill's father got the call in 1921!
