Fran (KM1Z) and Jay(KK1J) getting setup |  |
The deck and solar panels at Wulfden Manor |
 |
The operating position, note Fran having to hold down the Bencher paddles. The cold and old rubber feet, made the surface slippery. A mousepad solved the problem. |  |
The military surplus fiberglass tubes made excellent masts. They came from a camo net support package. |
 |
The swaged fiberglass tubes just slip together quickly and cleanly |  |
The dipole center connector zip-ties to fitting the simply slips on top of the pole |
 |
Jay, operating Fran's Sierra, misunderstood. He thought it meant "Freezing Your BRAIN Off" !!! |  |
Fran mentors young Leo (KB1EZE) for his first time on the air on CW |
 |
A view of the operating position, over the shoulder of Fran. Blue Box next to Sierra is Fran's audio booster for second headset or speaker |  |
If we had sound, Fran would be yelling " ... acchhh, where's the RF Gain control???" |
 |
Brian (N1BQ) flexes frozen fingers while logging a QSO. |  |
