Two-fer POTA (Chattahoochee Forest and Chestatee WMA) in conjunction with SOTA this past weekend on Wildcat Mountain near Hogpen Gap. Upper 20s with 20mph gusts and snow flurries. 14 VHF contacts. GDOT was in the process of putting up "Road Closed" signs on the Richard B Russell Scenic Highway as we were driving out.

Cindy and I are at Panola Mountain State Park for the day. Before I set up my radio stuff Cindy insisted I do some exercise so we went on a loop walk around one of the park’s lakes. Nice place just dreading the drive home when rush hour hits. This park is south east of Atlanta and we live up north east.

Hamvention 2021 Cancelation Release:
Unfortunately, several setbacks in the recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic make necessary the difficult decision to cancel Hamvention 2021. Hundreds of volunteers have been working to do everything necessary to bring this Hamvention to the many amateur radio enthusiasts and vendors who support the Dayton… More Hamvention.
Vaccine distribution both in the United States and around the world is lagging behind what was planned. In addition, the emergence of a more communicable form of the COVID-19 virus increases the potential for further public health problems in the next few months. We make this difficult decision for the safety of our guests and vendors. Those who had their tickets deferred last year will be deferred again.
Stay tuned for information about a QSO party for the Hamvention weekend. We’ll be back next year!!!

On Sunday Marie who is my friend and Elmer helped me install the radio in my car. She also helped me program the radio as well
Now I can get on the air from my radio, but as a brand-new ham, it's a bit scary.… More Please be patient with me as I learn to put the book knowledge into practice. I welcome any help from you all, too! Hiroko KO4JWM
