Sadly I cant make the trip even though this is basically in my back yard. I might try to see if I can pop in to Kootenai Falls on Sunday, it isn't to far from me.

Well, things lined up for me to be able to go so far. It looks like I will end up buying tickets at the gate, but I will look for the group, and perhaps do some handshaking. It has been 10 years since I have been able to make it to a rally, but with my current situation, it is going to be...

Recently moved from Washington to Just west of Troy. Just getting settled in.

If you don't have it tuned by that weekend, I will have my SWR meter there.

Phew, sitting across the river, essentially, at Rasar State Park, this (Thanksgiving) weekend, if the camp out is going to be the same weather, bring the cold gear, and firewood, it's going to get chilly.

I think the channel (CB5) is mentioned on the rally point page. It also looks like 146.46 is the accepted ham 2 meter simplex frequency, found this in the bootcamp page. And for reference, the first post from that page. https://www.overlandbound.com/forums/index.php?posts/244336

Yes, all of the above, and CB. Half looking for an easy summit for a possible SOTA activation, not an absolute, but I am thinking about it.

It will be a late charge again for me. I get off of a 12 hour night shift at 0730 that morning. 1 night, 2 nights, either works for me, wont have to go back to work until the Friday after.

Great to finally connect with some of you. Some of the sunset from that night, on the overlook.

Would be cool to meet some of you. The combo of working night shift the night before, and the traffic for me to drive north from Everett at that hour, I'm not making any firm plans, but will see how i feel.

At least once per trip? Well at least once per trip, I make a breakfast of french toast, made with cinnamon swirl bread, with all of the fixings. Also at least one dinner per trip is made up of a decent cut of grilled beef, which ever looks the best at the time, served with grilled Asparagus...

KD7ZKB from Everett WA. Radios all over the place, Icom 2730 in the Tacoma, Icom V8000 (my first ham radio) in the Teardrop, Yaesu FT-8900R being set up for a base/go-box, along with various Beaufeng, Icom, and Wouxun hand held's. I have chased some SOTA, haven't activated yet. I am playing...

I use harbor freight flag poles. The pipe that comes with them, and some exhaust clamps/u-bolts, made some fairly handy mounts, that allow the poles to be removed and stored. Sent from the device I am using, from the spot I am at.

Western Snohomish County, I grew up in Robe Valley (outside Granite Falls, on the Mountain Loop Highway), work in Arlington, and currently live in Everett. Sent from the device I am using, from the spot I am at.

While I currently, at the time of posting, don't have a Base Camp flag, I do run dual Harbor Freight flag poles, usually one for flags, and one for antennas.

New member currently in Everett WA. At this point I DD/Overland in a 2004 Toyota Tacoma DC, and a home built Teardrop trailer. The Tacoma is in the process of getting some upgrades, thanks to an incident where I got rear ended in traffic. It is going to end up with a flat bed, with some...
