1st SOTA Activation

Just a 1 pointer and super easy to get to. W0D/ES-002 Eastern South Dakota. Only activated 4 times before. Last activation 2016. Was lucky to work this site before the snow flies. Also was blessed with a Summit to Summit. W6TED called me from Mt Palomar, Ca. You know, the one with the famous observatory. My ops video are kind of raw but I did edited out about 35 minutes of calling ‘cq’. A little chilly and a little windy as a SOTA should be. So fun! Testing out a mountain topper that I built when they first came out. The programmable memories were wonderful to have!
