It wasn’t the longest contact ever but I did manage Washington state from San Diego last weekend. running 2 watts into a WRC antenna from the QRP-Labs QDX.

    That’s cool, I am HOA locked as well. So every day is field day for me. :) Kind of neat how far one can get with FT8 and low power.

      I really want a super small laptop or touchpad I can SOTA with to FT8 when I hike.

        Check out the microsoft surface tab. With Linux they are wonderful, but if you are a windows user they are pretty awesome there too.
