The anchor bag. I love this idea! I have been wanting to do something very similar. I was just up at Steamboat and West Twin just south of that. Looks like a good summit. - Jeff (KK7DAK)

There’s a few more summits in the GP that are still on my list.

What a stunning location. Did you 3d print your radio cage / screen protector?

I bought it on Etsy. I can't remember from whom, but enter "IC-705" into the Etsy search bar and there are a lot of cool accessories.

Nice job! Do you use a dipole or an EFHW? Also, how high is your pole?
@KD7QOW-np9gd9 ай бұрын
I used my EFHW for this activation. The mast is the Sotabeams Carbon 6 and the section the wire rests on puts the apex about 16 feet off the ground.

One thing I haven't seen anyone else mention is that protective cover you have for your 705, the orange thing. Did you make that or buy it? Can you tell me more about it?
@KD7QOW-np9gd4 ай бұрын
I bought it on Etsy. I don’t really like it as it adds a lot of size and weight to an already relatively large and heavy SOTA rig. I stopped using it months ago. I ended up just getting a protective face cover that straps in place with a velcro strap.

Was that a Sotabeams pole you had there? Where can I buy those really compact travel poles? 73 VK4QP

It's the sotabeams Carbon 6. I'm really happy with it! www.sotabeams.co.uk/carbon-6-ultra-light-6-m-19-6-ft-mast/

What are you using to hold up/support the telescopic mast at the base?
@KD7QOW-np9gd9 ай бұрын
Nothing! It’s perfectly balanced from the top. I don’t even remove the bottom cap.
