More Gardening

I'll spare the details of the actual horticulture, but we finished building a raised bed today and stained it and the existing deck. I installed a Met post at the back of the deck, which will be buried by the top soil I am bringing on site in the next couple of weeks. This has about 1m of wooden 6x6 inch fence post above ground which is supporting about 6m of aluminum pole. This will be the vertical section of the new inverted-L.

I had one more Met post lying around from the build and this has also been sunk in place next to the shed. It can hold both a trellis and my sectional mast for a VHF beam. I will draw a plan on the garden and post it over the next few days.

I also sorted out my pile of VHF yagis (plenty of work to do there!) and regsieterd the Clifton ARS for both NFD (cw) and VHF FD.
