Mtn goat checking out WU7H's CW skills on Winchester Mtn (and my 2nd CW QSO w KX0R)

Activation Reports

Sharing a fun July activation of Winchester Mountain (W7W/WH-122) with Josh WU7H. It was my first planned activation with another activator, and it was an amazing summit to activate in Washington State near the Canadian border.
One of the highlights of the activation was a mountain goat visiting the summit. Josh mentioned this has happened to him before on other summits, and they seem drawn to the CW sound. The second highlight was making my second CW contact (first was chasing WW7D on a local summit), and greatly appreciated Josh WU7H’s help and KX0R’s patience on the receiving S2S end. 73, James WA7JNJ

Well done working KX0R on CW.
I have worked him a few times on his summit on 30m but never made a S2S yet.
Keep up good work they become easier with practice .
Amazing scenery from those summit too.
