For radio testing, Andrew's friend's house is pretty much right on top of Petes Mountain, which has a nice line of sight to all the flat terrain south toward Salem. It can see pretty much anything along I-5, and is conveniently about 30km to Mt Angel, which is the only thing approximating a peak that direction. I threw together a map showing line-of-sight from the house (green shading), and by clicking the "House to Abbey" on the left then "profile" you can see the, well, profile.
