This looks like a super easy antenna to deploy in the field. Or even a back up antenna to have on hand in case of emergency needs.

After a few years of bring away... we are going back to Harry's Cafe for the Wednesday Coffee QSO. Farmhouse was fun.... but kind of cramped. We hope to get our numbers back with this move. A few of us stopped by after the meeting Saturday and let them know we were coming.. in numbers smaller now but we hope to get it back to the 15-20 we used to see every week!
Plus.. there is a LITTLE history there.......
It's that time again.... and our goal is to be much more active with meetings and events in 2024. On February 24th at 9am at Pittsburg Fire Station #1 located at 911 W 4th in Pittsburg. Winter Field Day was a complete success so let's keep it going! As normal we will have coffee. doughnuts and of course the famous breakfast casserole for all! We will be having a presentation and Zoom demo of the recently talked about. Chris NØYH and Tim N5STR will be showing us the RM Noise application with a live radio demo!
Then Winter Field Day results will be discussed and how we can make Field Days even better at the SEKARC by using/building band filters to improve the 2 station operation! There is plenty of parking in the back and please use the main entrance in the front of the rear East door. Please stay tuned to the website here, email list, facebook group and GroupMe sites for updates and additional information
Winter Field Day will be held at the Frontenac Fire Department/Public Safety Office at 199 N Crawford in Frontenac Kansas. We will distribute more information as it comes out. Please submit the RSVP Form below with your information if you can help setup Saturday morning, operate and/or take down on Sunday early afternoon.
Kilowatt Amateur Club will also be working with us and we GREATLY appreciate their help and cooperation! Teamwork!!
Also there is a spot on the form if you are interested in operating over night... we'd like to if we can get enough operators to do so but we can discuss.
Professor Jim N4BFR teaches you the best HF ham radio antennas for beginners!

I got this tip from my sister!! Thanks Diana!
From the ARRL:
From ARRL News:
A student-led contact with astronauts through the Amateur Radio on the International Space Station (ARISS) program was a great success that earned significant media attention. On Monday, December 11, students at Harbor Creek High School in Harborcreek, Pennsylvania, used amateur radio to talk with Astronaut Andreas Mogensen, KG5GCZ.
The students are part of the Advanced Technologies Group, KC3SGV, an after-school club at Harbor Creek. Fifteen of the students are licensed radio amateurs. As ARRL News reported last week, their faculty advisor, Assistant Principal Drew Mortensen, AC3DS, is a graduate of the ARRL Teachers Institute on Wireless Technology. He utilized what he learned in the program and brought it back to the school. The ARISS contact is just one of the many successes the program has had.
