2010 ARRL September VHF Contest
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, CT FN31, but because of some damage to the tower trailer I decided to stay 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
