Greetings,
This past April I spent 5 days at the Kona Isle condos on the Kona Coast of
Hawaii. I selected this lodging option largely due to it having a nice picnic
area with Trex-type picnic tables about 50 ft or so from the ocean. There was
some QRM present from a nearby condo complex on the north side of my TP DXing
set up. I used the SUPERB DeBock turbocharged Tecsun PL-380 augmented by a 5
inch "Frequent Flyer" FSL. That equipment made this TP DX possible.
The first installment of TP DX:
