CW POTA CRAB at Biscayne National Park

YL CW POTA at Biscayne National Park - any more YL activating POTA in CW out there?
My mast holder worked amazing during this activation. It was a really hot day. I do not know if I will be able to make a lot more activations during the summer due to the extreme hot weather.
I wonder how many YLs are activating POTA exclusively in CW. I do know of a few YLs who activates POTA in CW and they are amazing operators. We have to support each other since I do not hear many of them. I get excited when I meet one.
Do not be scared to activate! The only way to get over your fear is by doing it!

    Great activation, Lidi! I don’t think I’d be able to do it with all the crazy business going on behind me 😂 and not to mention the heat. ☂️ 😊 I may have to do the activation via maritime mobile from a small boat/kayak with a cover and my toes in the water 😉 ~AA4SB

    Very nice, Lidi! I am even more impressed with the fact that you write with your left hand and key with your right. Mira, pues!

    Well done! Enjoyed your activation. I had one of the MFJ's and sadly sold it. Good radio. Love the CWMORSE paddles and your whole setup. You're a good model of how to do an activation. Hope to catch you on the air. Steve KC5TTY

    Thanks for the encouragement to get out there even if my copy isn't perfect. BTW, great pronunciation of Bioenno. At least that's how I say it. :) Jeremy - K4WPA

    Nice activation Lidi. The heat sucks for us in summer, but I can deal with it a lot better than the skeeters. 73 de Al, kj3q.

    Must have missed the crab in your vid. Saw the spider, truck, and red bird. 🤔 🦀 You could try wearing shorts to beat the heat. I know the bugs are probably bad. I saw your bug spray there. There's also Thermacell Mosquito Portable Repeller.

    It is at the end of the video.. just fast forward 😆 Besides mosquitoes there are no-see-ums bugs and I am very allergic to their bites.
