    She was itching to get her new G90 on the air, so we went out to K2540 for a quick activation. Thanks to everyone who hunted us!

    I am curious what antenna you were using. Lots of good sounding signals.

    I am doing a video on it soon... until then I am sworn to silence... it was sent to me from someone who is going to sell them to test out. It shouldn't be long! But you are right, it performed beautifully!

    Yeah, I was surprised by how well it performed. Jherica was excited to have worked CA and AZ... both are rare for her on POTA outings.

    There were a ton that I just couldn't fit into a 15 minute video! That radio/antenna combo was amazing!

    Good to see the g90 working. Also the family which did all the work.
    It is great to be in p.o.t.a.
    Hope you had many contacts.

    Thanks... getting young people in the hobby is what I do, both at work and at home! I'm lucky, I have an awesome kiddo!

    Jherica had more contacts than I did... but that is usually the case hihi. She has gotten really good at working the pile ups... and I am often quite happy just to log them for her and enjoy the time together playing radio!
