Sometimes when doing a POTA activation, the scenery makes you stop and take a picture or two. This particular QTH is enclosed by three National Park POTA references:
- Golden Gate National Recreation Area US-0647
- Fort Point National Historic Park US-0819
- Presidio of San Francisco US-7889

The radio was connected to the Gabil GRA-7350T vertical on a mag-mount. This antenna setup lives in the trunk of the car for ready deployment.

The activation started on a rather quiet 20 meters. The calls didn’t come particularly fast, but it was steady enough to qualify the activation in just under 30 minutes.

Most of the QSOs came from the eastern half of the continent, save for Brian up in British Columbia.

Come summertime this spot will be enveloped in cold fog more often than not.
