Claiming The BURG’s Impromptu First Group POTA

This started out Saturday afternoon as simply a chance for Greg KC1NRJ and Leandra AF1R to shoot the breeze about their various antenna issues. And to activate Elm Bank Reservation (K-8408). It turned into a regular group POTA with Christophe K1TOF and his daughter, along with Julie (Greg’s wife and one of the founders of the BURG), and even a sighting of Professor Rowell AK1WI!!! Marc AA1F and KM1NDY missed out on the fun, but we are still considering this the BURG’s first group POTA (whether it was intended to be or not!!!)

Testing Christophe’s G5RV…

Julie helping Christophe’s daughter put together a radio…

Leandra and Christophe troubleshooting a diy band pass filter…

…and then getting on the air with Greg’s Xiegu G90.

And even an unexpected sighting of an AK1WI prototype (shhh…)

Not too shabby for a totally unplanned group POTA!
