W6SAE Station Blog: Portable/Mobile on Mt. Vaca
http://callingfrequency.blogspot.com/2016/12/portablemobile-on-mt-vaca.html
Adventures in Ham Radio. Thursday, December 1, 2016. Portable/Mobile on Mt. Vaca. Today I drove up to near the summit of Mount Vaca (SOTA W6/NC-151), put my Yaesu ATAS-25 antenna on the roof of my car, and "tuned the bands" to see what I would come up with. I didn't operate as a Summits-On-The-Air activation; I was operating from my vehicle- a SOTA no-no, plus I already activated the summit this year. I logged four contacts:. My trusty Yaesu FT-857D is ready for action in the back of my RAV4. Looking nor...

http://callingfrequency.blogspot.com/2016/12/activation-report-sota-w6cc-063.html
Adventures in Ham Radio. Saturday, December 17, 2016. Activation Report: SOTA W6/CC-063. I had brought a handheld FM radio (a Yaesu VX-6R), however, and was at least able to log 9 contacts on the 2-meter band (146.520 MHz FM) and qualify for an activation of the summit. Looking south, with San Francisco in the distance. The Pacific Ocean, over which I had hoped to talk to VK1AD. The summit of the east peak of Mt. Tamalpais, as seen from below. Summits on the air.

http://callingfrequency.blogspot.com/2016/11/a-visit-to-hro-and-quick-sota.html
Adventures in Ham Radio. Saturday, November 19, 2016. A Visit to HRO and a Quick SOTA Activation (Last Catch-Up Post). On Saturday, November 5, I paid a visit to Ham Radio Outlet (HRO). In Oakland, California, with a small shopping list in hand. I had two goals in mind: (1) getting my new end-fed HF antenna up and operational, and (2) setting up my Yaesu FT-857D for portable (SOTA) operations. K6EL, KK6ZLY, and K6JEL are all fellow SOTA junkies. Summits on the air. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

To the left, on the window ledge, is my trusty Radio Shack PRO-651 handheld scanner. Posted on the bulletin board is my first QSL card (! When I get around to finishing the shack, there will be a small bookshelf next to the table for my growing collection of amateur radio literature, and the bulletin board and various certificates will be on the wall.
