Mount Baldy (W7M/HB-027) activation today (8-pts) put me over 900 SOTA points. SOTA Goat is in reach, finally, after 12 years.

Well, that’s a wrap. I’ve accepted a position for a job at home in Montana. Wake Island was an amazing experience for me, largely thanks to our ham radio community. 73, Allen ~ KH7AL.

With the DeltaFlex pointed NW, 15m kept on rolling last night. I was up WAY past my bedtime but it was worth it for 384 FT8 contacts.

Who in Vermont wants to try a POTA Park-to-Park with Wake Island? I'm not big on award chasing but this has been bugging me for a while.
