This view is looking roughly northeast with Long Island Sound in the background. Shown are the homebrew beams for 2 meters and 70 cm and the KB6KQ halo for 6 meters. The long 3" PVC pipe (that looks like a bazooka) on top of the Jeep is used to carry mast sections and other antenna pieces that are too long to fit inside the jeep.
