I have taken my 2 meter portable out with me on Lee many times. The closest receive station for the Milwaukee 91 (146.91 – ) repeater is the main site which is about 25 or so miles from the area I ride in. My ham radio friends affectionately call Lee “Lima-Echo-Echo” the ham radio horse. One day I plan to use my Kenwood mobile radio as a cross band repeater and then I will take a 440 hand held out with me and see how that works out. The portable I took with me is a Yaesu FT-270 2 meter monoband. I have a “tiger tail” wire attached to the outside ring of the SMA antenna connector which provides a little better ground plane.

    I was told tha Amway “LOC” (Liquid Organic Concentrait) works well as a fly spray. Its all natural, nothing harmfur to the horse. Deluted, its supposed to be good. I have to say I never got a chance to try it.

    Its nice to see you on Lee again. Have fun.

    I went on an anual senior walk in downtown Cleveland, Ohio a few weeks ago. I met a mounted police officer ther who rode a beartiful percheron named Molly. She looked very much like Lee. We talked quite a while. Molly was 5 years old. We spent some time together. I was even able to feed her an apple. It was great to be around a beartiful horse again. Just being close to her confirmed the way you must feel about percherons.
