On Monday, May 3rd, during the Golden Week holidays, I went to JA/NN-134 Hijiriyama 1,447m in Nagano City for SOTA activation. This mountain is also an easy SOTA mountain that can be reached by car up to 10m below the summit.

↑Prepare the radio(FT-857DM).
しかし今日はFT-857がCW-Keyの入力を受け付けない！
But today the FT-857 doesn't accept CW-Key input!
う～ん、3日前は使えたのに、、、なんで～？？
Hmmm, I was able to use it 3 days ago,,,, why ?
いろいろ設定を確認するが、さっぱり動かない。↓
I check various settings, but it doesn't work at all.
↓仕方ないので、代わりにKX2を準備する。
↑There is no choice but to prepare KX2 instead.
いつもの様に14MHzから開始。Start from 14MHz as usual.
