Hi Steve. I have found some rather high property (> 1000 ft HAAT)
which I purchased myself. I have elected to avoid all the hastles of
leasing and just built a weekend cabin up there and it houses an
amateur repeater which I moved from a high tower previously at my
house. Yes, it does make a GOOD field day site, especially for the
VUF/UHF operations. I have just a 17 ft. pole now for an antenna
mount but am going to install around 60-80 ft Rohn 25G when I get to
it. I had to get a road dozed, gravel hauled, building, timber
cleared, etc. 4 years later, it has made a good work project and the
family is happy with the recreation aspects because we like the high
country and bordering National Forrest. My advice is to own your own
place and do with it as you please and build it up over time assuming
there aren't neighbors with bad blood. It sounds like a good
investment and likely is a "chance of a lifetime". Another repeater
that I helped a friend with for 13 years had to move 3 times because
of small site changes that occurred.
