Our HF antenna 'farm' includes wire delta loop, directional K4KIO Hex beam that can be rotated to 'aim' at a distant station, and gain vertical antennas for the VHF and UHF bands.
Our station is dedicated to the memory of Bob Shoemaker, KG6EJW.
Bob was a very involved director for the West Valley Ham Shack.
He is now a Silent Key, falling victim to COVID 19.
He epitomized the amateur 'can do' spirit. He is missed by us all.
