[MAMS] 2-3gigs with k4to

[Zack Widup]

It's a great site. Great views to the west, south and east from the
parking lot of the clubhouse. You can see Lake Michigan from there.
The only directions that are obstructed are north and northeast. But
there are other spots around the golf course/landfill, slightly lower,
that have views in those directions.

I remember Jim's 5760 had some intermittent problem in that contest. I
worked him in a couple of his places and then in a couple others he
couldn't hear me. He was sure it was a transverter problem because we
were able to work on 10 GHz.
