A couple of Desert Rats from El Paso, TX - Mike/KD9KC and Ron/WT5RZ visited Colorado Springs during North American Summits on the Air weekend event.
They decide to activate Pikes Peak seeing the weather was surprisingly still in Indian Summer mode on Oct 22! Mike with his AlexLoop/Walkham antenna and Ron with his Buddipole vertical make lots of interesting contacts worldwide (T32C) in spite of the wind and cold. Fun day on the summit for SOTA and ham radio!
