[Elecraft] OT: Looking for Bay Area radio hikers with kids

[Wayne Burdick]

Hi all,

My son is nearly 13 and an avid hiker/nature enthusiast. He and I trek all over Northern California, doing bouldering, bird watching, photography, beach combing, etc. Lengths of outings vary from a couple of hours to a couple of days. 

Here’s the non-OT part: There’s always a bit of QRP operation involved, sometimes to test new hardware or firmware. Griffin, tree climber extraordinaire, often does a high wire act to help optimize antennas. He’s especially handy at Field Day.

These trips are always more fun if there are other kids and parents along. Please contact me if you might be interested in joining us sometime, maybe starting with a short day hike. We live in Belmont but can meet up anywhere. (For his Spring Break we went to Valley of Fire, Nevada!)

73,
