I have been thinking the same.

The Carlisle State Forest has limited parking and a limited area to set
up.  Great Brook and Manning are good options.  I have activated Manning.
I have been saving Great Brook.

I can do Thursday/Friday weekday activations.  10:00 is good.  This week I
have a dentist appt on Friday.

Equipment I can bring:
Xiegu G90 20W (CW and Phone) can do FT8 but not very experienced, never
activated with it.
15 Ah battery
Fox River monopole w 40m coil
(Can do 10-20m plus 40m)
6m Carbon Fiber Mast can be used with
20m EFHW
20/40 m EFHW
20m dipole
20m 1/4 monopole wire
15m 1/4 monopole wire
Rig Expert for tuning
Paddles and straight key.
Coax to connect it all

Can also bring enthusiasm and 18 WPM Morse.

Can also bring 2 single band CW QRP rigs with 6Ah battery

Come on K1VK.  It's time we got in the air together!
