Oscar Satellite Station,...Finished

After 4 months finally have the Oscar satellite station back on the air. Ran into a few problems in getting the short piece of tower installed. I then had to scrape away 1-2 inches of sod for antenna ground clearance of the 2 meter antenna. Of course then ran into the usual cable issues as some of the cable from CT was well over 10 years old. I did manage to work a few stations on FO-29 including Cuba, a portable in parking lot in Washington D.C. and Texas. Still working out a few minor issues but those will be solved in time.
