After
recently completing my Elecraft K1 #1866, as a christening celebration,
I've been activating scenic areas along the Appalachian Trail in the
Northeast. This is Grandview Overlook about 1/2 mile north of the NJ-NY
border at about 1500 ft. I was there June 12 for three hours. I am using
my homebrew and modified N2XE Flyrod Vertical per his May 2004 QST
article. I was first licensed in 1963 as K7YYK (first KN7YYK) then AA7QZ in 1991 and N7UN in 1997. I have been active at different periods during this time. DXing, contesting, and now field QRP have been some of my interests in Ham Radio. I moved to NJ with my job about 10 years ago from Portland, Oregon. Yes, it still is a shock!
Hope to work you from some of these portable sites along the Appalachian Trail this summer!
