Three more from Raleigh - left is John KG4HDT, the new EC for the ARES
operation at the State EOC (part of Wake
County ARES), and above, Mike KC4WUH rides with brand-new ham Charles
KG4MXV (Mike's kind of hard to see behind the windshield). Between
the two of them, they had enough radios and vehicles to make a SAG wagon.
Charles built a frame for his trailer to carry more bikes. Later
on, we put Mike with the mechanics, after the most frequent question on
the repeater was "where's the mechanic?"
Robin WA4WPD was the only motorcycle on the tour. We hope to more
of them in the future. The bicyclists say they like having motorcycles
on the tour (maybe they envy the engine).
And Max KO4TV, another Raleigh ham, did double duty as a Rest Stop operator
and SAG Wagon. Note the antenna on the left side of the picture.
It's a homebrew mobile dual-band J-Pole. Max sells 'em in a magnet-mount
configuration.
