We'll be meeting on Saturdays from 1pm to 3pm to build a portable End Fed Half Wave (EFHW) wire antenna for the HF Amateur Radio bands. In the next month or two we'll also be planning a hiking trip to a local mountain top where we can operate battery-powered radios at high elevation and test our portable antenna performance. (More details to come.) We'll compare different antennas, and if the conditions are good we should be able to make contacts all over the world.
We'll meet at the gate on Junipero Serra across from Frenchman's road around 12:45pm and carpool up around 1pm. If you prefer to hike up, you can also use the pedestrian entrance on Junipero Serra and Stanford Ave and meet us at the shack. See the map below.
