@VA7FC @BSradioclub @VA7USD It was great catching you guys today and yesterday.

[Fred-K1⛰💃🏌️‍♂️ @K1STG]

A chilly and foggy activation at Brannan Island (US-6446) this afternoon. I’m around 50 QSOs away from a Kilo at this park. Even got @hamradio2dot0 in the log for a park to park. @VA7FC was in there for a DX p2p as well.

@VA7FC Lots of Washington, Oregon and SoCal this afternoon. Nice to be out again.

[Fred-K1⛰💃🏌️‍♂️ @K1STG]

POTA from US-0647. 14.308 SSB.

[Fred-K1⛰💃🏌️‍♂️ @K1STG]

Didn’t realize it was a contest weekend. 12 contacts from Angel Island (US-1123) mixed between 15M and 20M.

[Fred-K1⛰💃🏌️‍♂️ @K1STG]

Heading to Angel Island (US-1123) for some POTA. I have to change ferries in SF and then walk two miles, so it will be a couple of hours before I’m up on 20M SSB.

[Fred-K1⛰💃🏌️‍♂️ @K1STG]

CQ 14.325

[Fred-K1⛰💃🏌️‍♂️ @K1STG]

10 in the books from US-0647. Going to tune around 20M a bit more.

[Fred-K1⛰💃🏌️‍♂️ @K1STG]

POTA by public transit using SF Bay Ferry and Muni Metro. Heading to Ocean Beach to activate Golden Gate National Recreation Area (US-0647). I’ll be on 20m once I get across the city.

[Fred-K1⛰💃🏌️‍♂️ @K1STG]

@HamRadioDX Im on Angel Island today though.

[Fred-K1⛰💃🏌️‍♂️ @K1STG]

California is horrible, stay away. 😆

[Fred-K1⛰💃🏌️‍♂️ @K1STG]

@HamRadioDX After 23 years of living in the Bay Area, I finally visited two weeks ago. 😆

Totally worth the visit.

[Fred-K1⛰💃🏌️‍♂️ @K1STG]

@cqcqcqdx Except my parents would unplug the headset so we didn’t get the beeping. Every night at dinner.

[Fred-K1⛰💃🏌️‍♂️ @K1STG]

Got KN6TNT doing SOLA on Mount Davidson while waiting for the ferry in Oakland. 59 in The Town

[Fred-K1⛰💃🏌️‍♂️ @K1STG]

Sweet! This definitely fills a big void in Bay Area electronics availability.

@TheNotARubicon I hear 147.435 in Orange County impresses the ladies. 😆

[Fred-K1⛰💃🏌️‍♂️ @K1STG]

Enjoying 3D printing. The bottom ring on my SOTABeams Tactical Mini has been broken for a while. Fortunately, someone had an .STL of one on Pritables. Decided the replacement needed to be in color. 😁

[Fred-K1⛰💃🏌️‍♂️ @K1STG]

Out with the red aftermarket and in with a new stock metal one.

[Fred-K1⛰💃🏌️‍♂️ @K1STG]

I guess 3d printing is like ham radio, things multiply. Another Facebook Marketplace Ender 3 added to the fleet.

[Fred-K1⛰💃🏌️‍♂️ @K1STG]

This one has some miles. Had to replace the gear in the extruder.
