Wow, that must have been a heck of a gust. Wind shear, maybe. Look like the car was spared.

Hello Professor9 We appreciate your interest in The World Radio Club. WR call signs are awarded to operators that make contact with certain club members on the air.

When conditions are favorable you will hear lots of WR stations on the air. Attempt to check in and indicate your interest in joining the club. You can also hang out in our chat room and try to sked a contact http://twrc.us/avchat/ Thanks again for your interest in our club and good luck!

Nice area for sure. The yard wasn't landscaped yet when I was out there. Bad place for a tower and antenna, the neighbors kept telling him.

Yep, thats W6GX. Check on his QRZ page. I helped him get the antenna in the air. He also had a FTDX5000. We had planned to do some contesting up until I moved to WV

That looks a lot like a house at Carter Lake in Larimer County CO. I helped get that antenna in the air. Could it be?

The Wasatch Front and Range are always having interesting weather. I miss traveling that way.

Fair weather rider here. Bike was put up the week before Thanksgiving. I enjoy the back roads in WV, VA and MD.

Certainly looks like a place I would like to visit.

Alive and energized. Nice shots!

You need to use the adverb, 'torrential'. That is an awesome storm!

I was hooked on radio and DX back in the 70's. Spent all my hobby money at Radio Shack. I was away from the radio for many years, spending my time playing with computers. About 2009 I was cleaning out a closet and came across my forgotten radio equipment. I decided to search the internet to see if the vintage CBs had any value. I was surprised at all the hobby material that was online. I hooked up a CB, threw a wire over the tree in the backyard. I made contact with WR2811 that afternoon. Later that same day searching the internet I came across a chat room where Eli and I recognized we had made radio contact earlier in the day. I joined the club and have had a blast. I feel privileged to be part of something special.
