WQ6X Dual-OPs another NAQP Cw contest.

Having taken 1st-place in the NAQP RTTY contest 2-weeks prior, the curiosity for NAQP Cw
is the possibility of taking a first place in the SO-Assisted QRP category in between a pair of
2-hour operating shift opening and closing the NAQP GiG for NX6T.

Internet problems on the Anza end made for weird operating quirks for BOTH stations running from the WA6TQT super-station.  Eventually, things settled down considerably, altho on the local end,
brief internet dropouts were a problem throughout the day.

Being that this was a Cw contest FULL advantage was made using the on-site Stereo-Cw facility. 
When running frequencies for NX6T from Anza, Stereo-Cw arrayed calling stations in a ~120-degree circumference around the listening experience, making it considerably easier to sort out the weaker signals from the stronger ones.  With the R-I-T control, the overall "location" of all the signals can be "rotated" around the listening experience.

At 20:00z, having survived the Anza settings debacle, the next 8-hours were delegated to the task of running WQ6X remotely from Ramona (KN6NBT's QTH)
running QRP power.  

The goal was to pickup yet another NAQP QRP win to match the QRP-RTTY win from the NAQP RTTY
GiG two weekends prior, followed hopefully by a QRP win in the NAQP Ssb GiG to weeks later, which I call a Triple-Crown operation.

Band changes seemed to follow
sine-wave pattern: 20 m- 15m- 10m- 15m- 20m- 40m- 80m- 20m- 40m.

Around 80% of the time WQ6X spent time running frequencies.  Being a QRP station,
eventually some MORON would move in "right next door" w/o a "QRL?" query first and call CQ. 
Answering their CQ (before finding a new run frequency), they would almost always come back to
me immediately - meaning they could hear me if they took the courtesy of listening first, followed
by "QRL?".  If I were to list the calls of the stations essentially bullying-in, you would be surprised
to know that it was nearly always stations who should know better.

As the day moved forward, WQ6X moved down band-by-band, eventually "camping out" on
40-meters.  A brief foray down to 80-meters (@03:40z) and back making only 5-QSOs was
almost not worth the effort, except maybe for the extra multipliers.  There were plenty of RBN
spots on 80-meters, however no NAQP OPs were actually listening.

The last two hours were spent running 80-meters while N6KI ran 40-meters and grabbed
a few multipliers on 160.  The fun of being the first to run on 80-meters is how many new
band multipliers we get to work, which for this contest was 39.

When it was all over, it turns out that WQ6X took a 2nd place in the Single-OP Assisted
QRP category, effectively putting an end to hopes for an NAQP Triple-crown for 2025.

DiD YOU work the Summer 2025 NAQP Cw contest?

Is WQ6X or NX6T in YOUR LoG?
