POTA Activation @ K-9432, Sheldon Marsh Nature Preserve

While on a trip with the family to Great Wolf Lodge in Sandusky, OH, I had a chance to activate Sheldon Marsh Nature Preserve. There are quite a few parks in close proximity to this hotel. This one was less than three miles away. I set up the Wolf River Coil in the park and operated on 20-meters (14.240). I had an excellent SWR, nearly 1:1. The band was hoppin’ because I was able to reach coast-to-coast in the continental United States, racking up 18 contacts in about 20 minutes of activation. I am going to try another park tomorrow.
