[K3CAL] Who is interested in Parks On The Air?

[KB3WFV]

Absolutely Andy! We can do that too! Perhaps during the warmer weather. The primary goal is to get club members outdoors with radio. So, they can learn operating HF and all the tricks of doing so.. Once the majority of the group is comfortable with picking up the microphone and operating HF, then the activations can be expanded.

Great Idea!

 How about an "on site* antenna build at one of the activations? Build and tune a dipole(or some other type)and use it for the activation.
