Very poor propagation conditions. Farthest contact was FN02 near Rochester and FN20 in New Jersey. No VE contacts. The timing of the WAE SSB contest did not help.
Very cold (8 deg. C) at summit and quite windy conditions thus it was a good idea to bring a tent. Also we had a flat tire on one car which delayed our start. Only operated for 3 hours.
But we had a lot of fun and we had some good practice for portable operation.
73!
