VE2/QC-086 : Activated on august 20, 2014

http://www.sotawatch.org/summits.php?summit=VE2/QC-086

This was a tough one! No trail and big power line (QRN!!!). I had to change my location twice! First time, I was getting electric shock from the feed point of buddipole 200" vertical :-o . No way I will plug my KX3 on this! Second time QRN was still high (+10 db). Finally setup 150 meters further away but was still difficult to work (only 5 QSO). Thx for your patience guys!

Will do this activation again? NO!
