Post through me for a loop. I thought... wait a minute, there's no repeater up there. Then I recognized the case. Good job you guys

But who's the old guy in the hat looking like he's ready to pass out

Did you bring him oxygen tanks?

Does Gus know you stole the cookie sheets for the mag mount antennas from the pantry?

Toolman, John bought the pans new. When I first saw them I thought "oh cool new piz oh wait it's for the repeater"!

I bet Darryl and Kathy still had cookies up there with the cookie sheets

I watched ET this weekend with my granddaughter. Seeing the equipment up there made me think of ET trying to communicate so he could go "home"

The Special Net was dubbed:
"The Thin Crust Net" due to the 16" round pizza pans that were used as antenna bases.

Here's the Thin Crust Portable Emergency 2 meter repeater that Darrell and crew took to the top of Mount Baden Powell for Sunday's testing.
