Eagle Tower Reaches the Low Desert!

Hello members. My family and I did some radio testing today of Eagle
Tower's coverage.

Equipment used: Comet SBB-7 antenna and a Kenwood D-710A @ 50 watts.

We were successful at hitting Eagle Tower as far south as HWY 111 and
Portola Ave intersection in Palm Desert.

Also as far East as Monterey Ave Off ramp & 10 FWY. I suspect it will
go farther too.

Also portions of Rancho Mirage.

And as far north as the Desert Hot Springs Ward Building!

That's pretty incredible. I didn't think this would be possible.

We talked with Craig (KF6ZAF) for most of the drive. Pretty clear.

We would love to hear back from you too!!
