May 3, 2025, Oakville Harbour Historic Site (CA-6319) and Great Lakes Waterfront Trail (CA-6003)

A quick activation at Oakville Harbour, followed by a coffee with VA3OBJ, Jeff. I knew that the bands would be challenging before I left, and it was quite challenging. I did manage to get the 10 QSOs, but had to go to 40m.

Here's a map of the QSOs, all 40m CW.

They were putting the sailboats back into the water using a crane, and a few parents brought their kids who found it fascinating.

I used the Mag Loop again, as I thought it might rain, and it would be easy to bug out.
