January 2024 POTA Round Up!

 I was able to get four activations in this month - consolidating posts and pictures from our private facebook groups to document here for future reference.   First Up was a New Years day activation at  K-4419 ID Fairchild State Forest in the Piney Woods area of east Texas.  Nice and relaxed outing, this was my 42nd. activation since September 2021.   To bad Texas State RR State Historic Park isn’t registered, would have been a nice 2-fer.   The pine trees were magnificent and truely inspiring! January 5th:  I  had a great pair of activations today in Bonham Texas.  On the way to my last activation I ran over something on the highway and had a blow out.  No such issues this time!   81 contacts in all,  thank you hunters!   First I activated the Sam Rayburn House State Historic Site first.  The noise floor was quite site (S8/S9) and I was about to give up after making 5 contacts, but before I knew it I had 40 in the log.  Lots of intentional QRM, but “Mr Sam” would have been proud!  He
