The results of the 2019 UKAC activity contests have just been published. In the low power section I came 78th out of 155 stations. Considering I was running QRP and a 2m big-wheel omni antenna and always on for less than 40% of the contest time, I am very happy with this. With a beam I am sure a lot better could be achieved.

12W handheld? - no thanks!
Considering the small difference (in range) between 2W and 12W and the very real danger (allegedly) of 12W next to the head and eyes I have no wish to buy a 12W handheld. Even working professionally on 5W pep PAs I regularly had dry eyes.
