With the cold north wind blowing, Dave makes his first CQ on 20 meter SSB (voice) while running about 15 watts out of his FT-897. I'm ready with my cellphone to spot him on SOTAWatch.org so that the summit chasers will know where to find him. When I found out that his first QSO was with SOTA uber-chaser Dennis, WA2USA... I knew that spotting him wouldn't be required!
