Spotlight ATS3a on ICE
ATS3a on ICE During SKN 2007 I operated from a snow cave I built from the DEC'06 Colorado blizzard. KD1JV's ATS3a is a 4-band 5W QRP rig that fits into a Altoids tin! Along with my FT817 and T1 tuner were the main rigs for my SKN 2007 snow cave operation. Steve/n0tu http://www.angelfire.com/planet/goatman/
