This one is from Bill, KD4PWB, FP#-42
The antenna, an end fed 1/2 wave (30m) wire, was directly connected to the tuner. The tuner (MFJ 901B) was grounded to the trailer. The headphone/boom mic was picked up at a hamfest for $5.

This one is from Armin, VE3TEQ, FP #-52
Set up ham radio at McKellar, Ontario Fall Fair in 99. Yes, there were other porkers around, some price winning but i was the only pig in a blanket. It was ccccold. The kid next to me was a visitor, fascinated by CW. I showed him the sound of CQ and he called me every time he found one and we tried to work him.
