Default ham neighbor shack

We pulled into Paradise Lake Family CG in Spout Spring, VA (Appomattox area) and ran into San KC8RL and Zerelda KH2BX.

Spent a nice evening discussing the usual topics.
Attached (hopefully) are pics of his antenna system and shack inside his 5er.
Permission was obtained to post pictures.

The big antenna is a 29 Ft vertical going to an auto tuner on the roof of the yet.
The small one is a 2mtr/440. on front of the trailer is a 16 FT flagpole that loads up nicely also.

He has automated everything (including folding down the vertical !) so it is literally arm chair operation.

Hope this stirs some creative thinking for other shacks.
