bring all my gear (rig, power supply, antennas, power and coax
cables, keyer, laptop, and tools - about 40 pounds) with me in two
backpacks. There is no shortage of trees, but I can only get the
antenna up about 25 feet because of the density of the palms". He
has to set up the station and then break it down each day, "which
further limits my operating time to 1230-1615Z on most days
typically". He runs 100 watts into single-band dipoles; he
operates mainly CW with some SSB, while digital modes are not
