Re: [Swlfest] Antenna ho?
I was able to pickup 6925 about a mile from the fest on my way home Saturday, so what ever was in use was working. -- Original Message -- From: Richard Cuff To: Discussion list for the Winter SWL Fest Subject: Re: [Swlfest] Antenna ho? Date: Mon, 7 Mar 2011 11:13:40 -0500 Thanks Mano - I had sent a note to the list many months ago envisioning an "HF Trailer" but never had any volunteers...so we'd love to incorporate your idea in the plans for 2012. Not sure, given the reinforced concrete construction, if the wire strung between balconies would be affected. Thanks for the input - We'll put it in the "idea jar" - around September / October I'll leave myself a reminder to follow up with you on this. We tend to go dormant from a Fest planning perspective from April through mid-September, because that's when schedules and plans try to firm up.

Re: [Swlfest] Antenna ho?
Thanks Mano - I had sent a note to the list many months ago envisioning an "HF Trailer" but never had any volunteers...so we'd love to incorporate your idea in the plans for 2012. Not sure, given the reinforced concrete construction, if the wire strung between balconies would be affected.

Re: [Swlfest] Antenna ho?
Even as a daytripper, I liked the setting at Plymouth Meeting. The Festmeisters once again did a grand job. Yes, not having an antenna pretty much took the SW out of the SWL Fest. If nothing else works, I am happy to set up a HF listening trailer in the parking lot with a balloon antenna or two. It will be warm with electricity, internet, coffee and micro-brew. On the Sunday afternoon there could be a trip to a nearby state park to setup a beverage antenna for a more deeper listening session. The balloon antenna idea or stringing a longwire between the balconies in the hotel atrium are other viable ideas to explore, if the management will lets us...
