US-2950TENNESSEE
Harrison Bay in a thunderstorm window
Ninety minutes between two cells. Random wire over a picnic shelter, 40 m CW, and a packing-up drill I'd rather not repeat.

Activation log
One entry per activation, newest first. Search by park name, reference or antenna — the filter reads the whole entry, so "random wire" or "US-2950" both work. Park references from the Caribbean trips live here too, and each one links back to the trip story.
VP2EANGUILLA
Shoal Bay East: salt water does the work
Beach vertical, ten feet from the surf line, into a European pileup that started before I was ready for it.
PJ5ST. EUSTATIUS
The Quill, from the crater rim
A steep hour up a volcano with 12 pounds of radio. Worth it for the takeoff angle alone.
US-9999FLORIDA
Anna Maria: the park across the bridge
A morning activation squeezed in before the family noticed I was gone.
US-2170GEORGIA
Cloudland Canyon, from the overlook lot
Terrain does what a tower can't. Twenty meters opened west and stayed there.
US-2934TENNESSEE
Cumberland Trail, first cold-weather outing
Gloves, a key, and a battery that lost 30% of its capacity in the first hour.
US-0806ALABAMA
Russell Cave, and a lesson in RF ground
Everything worked except the thing I'd tested at home.
