I've done Diablo several times, usually right before Pacificon. The
one time I did North Peak,
it was worse RF wise than Diablo. I also found that most times I'd be
the only one up there
after dark, with the exception of the Park Ranger, and even he was
scarce after dark ;-)
Iffen I recall correctly, they close the entrance gate after 8pm and
you'll have almost the
whole park to your self...
How about Angel Island? That's a spot on my bucket list one of these
days. Black Mtn
comes to mind also. SOTA peak and a hike in campground there as well,
W6/NC-150:

Have fun and GL!

Mt Diablo.. get some elevation on that qrp signal.. SOTA W6/CC-045.
you can drive right up to your camp area..
But be aware that Mt. Diablo is "RF city" with all the communication
sites up there on both North Peak and South Peak. (I used to maintain
one.). Not much HF if any but plenty of VHF, UHF, and microwave.
