MTARA just finished their 35th annual HAMFEST and electronics show. It's been fun being appointed as the club's webmaster for a second full year.

Reed, AB8AS had a question for me about the hamstick antenna I was using at a PARK 2 PARK contact we had. Later he wrote me, on the topic... I thought I'd share it here for hams who perhaps had the same question... Thanks Reed, for the contact! Good luck with your future activations...

Daniel,
Thanks so much in helping me out today while activating K-5587 here in WV.
Also, thanks for K-7542 and K-0882.

If you could share the antenna set up I would really appreciate it.
We are planning to again visit several National Parks this summer including Glacier National Park.
Due to space…
HAPPY EASTER EVERYONE!
