Equipment 

  • Chameleon Portable HF Antenna CHA HYBRID Micro
  • IC-706MKG HF/VHF/UHF All Mode Transceiver

There are various options in setting up the vertical antenna.  I used the Cha Spike Mount. With no counterpoise.  
Today amateur radio was invited by the parks administrator to operate our amateur radios.  We had 12 licensed amateurs and their families show up,

Thanks to all the licensed amateurs that I remembered. If I didn’t list you let me know.
