Transmitter Hunt


Transmitter was hidden by Monte (KE6GQO) on Balboa Peninsula at the entrance of the parking lot at E Balboa Blvd and A St. We had seven teams with all seven finding the transmitter. The transmitter was an HTX 202 running roughly 1 watt of power into a homemade 5 element arrow shaft yagi.
