This was the first year I was able to participate in the field for the Ohio State Parks on the Air event. Over the course of several hours I was able to activate Caesar Creek S.P. and Little Miami S.P. in SW Ohio. Used the good old FT-897 on solar and battery power with the 16' Buddipole mast holding up a 102' G5RV. See the video.

ATAS 120A Antenna Maintenance
My Yaesu ATAS 120A mobile HF antenna was acting quirky so I disassembled it for inspection. KB5WIA has a great blog entry discussing how to take it apart, inspect, and reassemble this antenna found here. It seems like anything can be found on YouTube nowadays but there have been no videos showing the guts of an ATAS mobile antenna until now. Check it out!
