Weekend #pota activations: Gladstone State Forest AU-7733 and Pine Creek State Forest AU-7709 #amateurradio #hamradio

That was a fun weekend of POTA. Two activations, lots of QSO, sunshine, nice food, happy dog and wonderful nature.

Pine Creek State Forest AU-7709

On Saturday, 29 August 2026, I was at Pine Creek State Forest AU-7709. I’m up on Tower Road looking west up the Bellinger River Valley and east over the Pacific Ocean. I was using the IC-7300 OG and inverted V I was on 40 and 15 metres.
