Parks, Az - DM35

I sometimes operate from my station in Parks, Arizona, about an hour south of the Grand Canyon, just east of Williams.   I have an IC7610 and KPA500 amplifier with parallel dipoles in the trees at 37ft for 20, 15 and 10.   I have an HF2V vertical on 40 and 80 meters.   I can operate the station remotely if the network gods are willing (connectivity at our house in Parks is - let's say - variable).

This page is a work in "when I get around to it" progress.

Tree climbers put pulleys in 3 trees for my dipole; feed for the HF2V 40/80 meter vertical; the feed for an unterminated NE/SW 680 foot beverage.
