POTA Activation and Finally AK on SSB
The hunters helped me finish 2021 strong with two new park activations: Lake Tawakoni State Park K-3031 and Tawakoni Wildlife Management Area K-6605. Special thanks to NL7V for North Pole Alaska! 97 Contacts all in, my logs submitted to K7 for processing and uploaded to LoTW for QSL confirmations. This was my first activation with the new Chameleon Tactical Delta Loop. I've seen Bill Brown using it so effectively that I had to try it. FB, and glad I did - much easier to set up than my WRC but requires a tuner which also allows faster band switching when conditions require. This might be my new favorite antenna! There were some shenanigans during the activations - people tuning up, humming and whistling. I was able to fight thru it and get 41 contacts completed at K-3031 then 56 more at K-6605. The WMA was off the beaten path - so off that the park sign was hard to find and not in the best repair! Map by DL4MFM...
