[Lowfer] Mods done on " XR Beacon, more power into the air now

[Mike WE0H]

Thats good news. I am thinking about turning on the radio tonight, but 
imagine most are just beaconing and no live individuals around to chat.

What antenna and radials are you using there on the Lowfer rig? Any 
trees or bushes within a hundred feet of the vertical?
