Skip Cameron - W5GAI showed me the link to the drone footage and I have to say, being there and touring the "farm" and "shack" led by Frank was a thrill.  Skip also showed me a few of your (club members') QTH's via Google Maps and I was impressed by that too!  Not possessing a single current fixed HF antenna at my QTH in Austin, I am interested in learning all I can about the incredibly extensive antenna farms both in Austin and (since I was here in VA) the one in MD this weekend.

>> Given that you all have far more experience (and in at least a few cases similar antennas arrays to W3LPL's) you may not be interested in the pics I have of Larry W3LPL's antenna farm and radio room (I can hardly call it a "shack").

>> However if you are please let me know and I can post some pictures I took from my visit this past Saturday as well as the link to the drone footage he has posted.

>> My apologies if this is old or irrelevant information, its all new and exciting to a DX newbie like me!
