Costa Brava 6M fun!

I'm currently on vacation in Spain.  I've been able to string up a 23m long random wire into a balun and am currently running FT-8 as EA3/G7GGW. I've been heard from Japan to Chile with my FT-891 running 25W with a LDG Z100 plus tuner. I've also made antennas for 6M  and 2M based on instructions here https://vk1nam.wordpress.com/6m-sota-antenna/ from VK1NAM's website so thanks to him for posting that. The antenna is attached to a 6M long carp fishing rod from Decathlon that compacts down to about 40cm when travelling and costs about 17 euros to buy. There is some activity on 6M and I have been received at a distance of more than 2000km!
