Mobile Station

My station while traveling and on the move is the Icom 7000 and I did get the antenna working on the rear bumper. It is a TarHeel 200A and I was having trouble because it was so close to the camper. It was an easy fix. I just adjusted the length of the coil at the base and got it to work on 40m and 80m. For a while I was just using a hustler antenna mounted on the roof and it worked perfectly well. You can see the video  on my portable station.

White Sands Missile Range

One stop on the way was at the White Sands Missile Museum. This was on a Sunday so I only got to see the outside, but it was pretty impressive. Some of you veterans may know these pictures.

Oliver Lee State Park

By far my best stop over was in Alamogordo, NM. I stayed there a few days because there was snow in the forecast in the direction I was heading. I stayed at the Oliver Lee State Park and it was wonderful. We didn’t get very much snow and there was some rain, but overall it was a very enjoyable stay and I really enjoyed the desert there.

Thank You

Thank you so much for visiting my website and my YouTube channel. You can also follow me on Instagram. I have been posting images and videos of my travel there.

I am looking forward to getting home and making more videos on the ICOM 7300 and ICOM 7610.
