Kel and I headed over to Booker Mountain after visiting nearby 7130 and discovering the activation zone of that summit is not really accessible. The top of Booker is an active RF installation and an easy drive up a dirt road from Tonopah, NV. I setup my station along a chain link fence at the high-point and noticed the hillside was littered with vacuum tubes. Worked 40, 30 and 20M CW with several S2S QSOs mixed in. On the way back down we hiked by an abandoned AT&T Long Lines Tower which was still mostly intact.
