Hi folks,
Today’s episode is in the lovely Hillsdale State Park, US-2340, in the beautiful 🌾 state of Kansas.
Hillsdale Lake features water-sports, fishing, recreation and camping. The campground facilities are good.
Every day of POTA can be different than the next. Today was no exception. Space weather experts forecasted the arrival of a CME (coronal mass ejection) from a solar flare that occurred a few days prior. I wasn’t expecting great conditions. The sun ☀️ is the radio-wave’s jerk boss. However, things worked out!
In addition, a cold front hit right when I started my activation. Temps dropped from 60° to 45° in a hurry. This effects my morse code fist, which is fun to watch me suffer through the activation. 😉
Nonetheless, the activation was a success, thanks to you amazing hunters.
I hope you enjoy the CW operation with translated morse code, logging app view, and multiple camera angles!
Get outside and play radio!
