Ham radio contest weekend for the ARRL DX SSB contest. Here I am snagging French station F6KHM on 15 meters using 100 watts into my MFJ-1786 magnetic loop mounted just 4 feet off the ground.

This video was taken at the ARRL 2010 Field Day site for the Gulf Coast Amateur Radio Club located in New Port Richey. This was our first attempt at flying a helium balloon with a long wire attached. We used a single conductor 24 gauge wire of 130 feet long. Made successful voice and digital contacts around the country with other clubs. A big thanks to Bill NG4L who recorded and edit this video.
