There are some days when the stars align just right. This was already set to be a big weekend for radio, but I managed to squeak out some time after work and before my family left for a Scouting event for the weekend to get out to Cuyahoga Valley National Park – K-0020. This was…
The OSPOTA logs were collected and the QSOs counted. I didn’t do too badly given the issues that I had that day. The results put me in the lower middle of the single operator low power category in a park. I can’t complain about that. I think I can do much better next time around….
Time to title these posts differently, I think… My family was otherwise occupied this past Saturday, so I did the only thing that made sense: I loaded up my bike and cycled off to Cuyahoga Valley National Park – K-0020. We’re getting to the time of year I enjoy most in the parks. It’s usually…
Before I left for NC, I spent some time on the POTA site looking for parks close to my hotel. On the drive down, Pilot Mountain was something I passed along the way. It was really pretty to see from the road. There were signs for a State Park and with a view like that…
The last time I traveled for work was in 2019, which was before the POTA bug got into me. This past week, I traveled by Jeep to NC for some meetings. I naturally added my IC-705 and assorted bits and pieces to my list and I was not disappointed! On Wednesday, 26-Oct-2022, I went out…
It was a windy Saturday morning with plenty of sunshine. Naturally, ones thoughts turn to cycling and a trip to the park. Why not toss the radio into the panniers and ride? Why not indeed! That’s exactly what my wife and I did. We rode out to Cuyahoga Valley National Park – K-0020 for a…
A mid-week activation! Something that’s important to note is that I work from home. Given the weird nature of my gig and meetings and a team that spans the globe, sometimes my work hours get strange and I start to feel a little claustrophobic if I don’t leave the house. That was definitely the case…
So it’s starting to look like I only ever go to one spot. That’s not really the case, but I am trying to get the Repeat Offender Activator award for Cuyahoga Valley National Park – K-0020. There will continue to be posts of this park with a few scattered in from other places in upcoming…
It was a Saturday morning and a great time for an activation out at my favorite spot: Cuyahoga Valley National Park – K-0020. Yes, yet again, my wife and I got on our bikes and rode out to the park for a little bit of radio. The wind was high and the world was telling…
This past weekend was a good one for radio. I managed to squeak in two activations of Cuyahoga Valley National Park – K-0020. Along with that, I tried something new with my mast and my bike. On Saturday, I drove out to the park. There were still stray bands of the ragged edge of the…
