SIERRA BAY, WASHINGTON - A Lafayette Parrish amateur radio operator has a unique solution for his love of DX, but his lack of cash.
"I always wanted to travel the world setting up DXpeditions from rare and desirable locations. So this is the next best thing!" exclaims retired landscaper Arthur Gibbons.
Gibbons says his meager savings won't allow global travel, so instead he's devised an economical plan.
"Each week," says the avid DX-er, "I travel to a different ethnic restaurant and set up my portable QRP rig in the parking lot. My homemade HF antenna on top of the push-up pole sure radiates on all that asphalt!"
So far this month, Gibbons has operated from the "Isle of Sardinia" Italian restaurant, the "Taste of Baghdad" middle eastern restaurant and the "Nairobi Diner" east�African eatery.
Look for Gibbons on 20 meter CW next week at "Roberto's Taqueria (Wednesday) and "Our Wurst is Best" German restaurant�(Friday).
