KW7A
Monday, October 12. 2009
A few weekends ago I helped KW7A get his tower up and then the following weekend we got his antenna mounted. It wasn't the easiest thing, but we did finally get it all put together. There were several of us there on each occation which made the process easier.
After the antenna was up it appeared the rotor doesn't work. So he'll have to work on that another time. But we were very happy that it was up before the snow comes. We did manage to point it eastwardly and I setup my radio and picked up Texas for the texas qso party and also Sweden, and to my surprise also Argentina. So it was working and in several directions.
