10 GHz portable over 150 km in VK3

One of the best things about our wonderful hobby of amateur radio is going portable. Here's a record of event video for a 10 GHz day out in VK3. Rob VK3KRD and Heath VK3TWO found their way to Mount Macedon, Gavin VK3HY went to Johns Hill Reserve in the Dandenongs, and I went to Krowera lookout in the Strezleki ranges to the southeast of Melbourne. There was some 3.4 GHz activity too. The path was 151km.

Well done, and thanks for sharing the adventure, guys! Great video production too. Rob, we camped just near there during a contest weekend about 50 years ago. I had my old 122 set with a 40m TV ribbon folded dipole thrown up into the pine trees. Fabulous noise-free location. 73's Graeme VK3BAT
