June was my first time so I said I was putting more effort this time. So I
built
a 28' fold over tower on a utility trailer. I added antennas for 6m 2m and
70cm.I started off in FN34 Danville,VT at Dole Point. It took about an hour
to set
up. Thank you Larry-k1lps for the tour. That evening I traveled to a rest
area
off I89 in FN33,here I did not deploy the tower so I used the mobile
antennas. Hi-par Saturn 6 and 2m/70cm whip. In the morning I drove to Pack
Monadnock, I could not drive up with the trailer so I parked across the road
At Temple Mountain state reservation,FN42 and set up the tower. I was going
to
Bald hill in Union,FN31,but because of some damage to the tower trailer I
decided
to ST in a familiar area. I finished in Jaffrey,NH FN32. I parked in the
Conant
High School parking lot.
Lesson learned, get a duplexer, so I do not have to keep changing feed lines
around. What a pain.
