Tim N7KOM<p>Just in time for Spring! Wire insulators for portable antennas!

Tim N7KOM<p>Activated Catalina Island today. East Peak Benchmark. 7.3mi and 1800' round trip hike. Boring road hike, but good views.<br>Got lots of QSOs on the mainland including <span class="h-card"><a href="https://mastodon.radio/@W9SSN" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>W9SSN</span></a></span> down in San Diego (on 2m fm and 20m cw).</p><p>Quick activation as I was with two non-hams and it was a long hike.</p><p><a href="https://mastodon.radio/tags/SOTA" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>SOTA</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.radio/tags/SummitsOnTheAir" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>SummitsOnTheAir</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.radio/tags/HamRadio" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>HamRadio</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.radio/tags/portableops" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>portableops</span></a></p>
Tim N7KOM<p>Did some touristy SoCal <a href="https://mastodon.radio/tags/sota" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>sota</span></a> today. Activated w6/ct-037 after a jaunt to the Hollywood sign. <br>Lots of 2m contacts, some with hams I've only communicated with over morse code. <br>Did a little HF and got a s2s on 40m and some good signals from Oregon and Washington ops. Usually only get those guys on 40m or 2m. Neat to get a rare other band 😆</p><p>Thanks for the trip reports <span class="h-card"><a href="https://mastodon.hams.social/@AA6XA" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>AA6XA</span></a></span></p><p><a href="https://mastodon.radio/tags/hamradio" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>hamradio</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.radio/tags/portableops" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>portableops</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.radio/tags/summitsontheair" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>summitsontheair</span></a></p>

Tim N7KOM<p>Beautiful day playing radio from Mt Bachelor (W7O/CM-005). 45 QSOS, 10 S2S, 35 CW QSOs. My "well I'll hop on 15m real quick before I qrt" ended up being 15 QSOs over 20 minutes. <a href="https://mastodon.radio/tags/summitsontheair" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>summitsontheair</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.radio/tags/sota" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>sota</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.radio/tags/HamRadio" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>HamRadio</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.radio/tags/portableops" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>portableops</span></a></p>
