Maybe Mike could have used the drone to hold up a wire antenna, too?

The island is in Huntington Lake, CA in the Sierra mtns above Fresno. Still pics can be grabbed from the video and near the end of the video I'm holding up the KX2 as the drone flies by. The caption could simply be " Elecraft Island".
