SOTA / POTA 2-fer Activation at Monte Sano State Park : N4BKY uses CW and her straight key!

What started out as a failed attempt ended up being double the fun! Monte Sano State Park is not only a POTA location, but a SOTA spot as well. We definitely learned some lessons to double or triple check your gear before heading but thankfully had the time to try again the next day. Monte Sano is a great park with hiking, biking, and some pretty nice locations to set up your gear for a fun day!

73,
