I couldn't resist posting this picture of the vehicle used by Budd, W3FF. I talked to him yesterday on 17 meters -- transcontinental -- as he pedaled home in California on his magnificent trike. He wasn't using the quad in the picture (he was on a vertical). The six meter quad is fantastic. He worked Japan with this rig on six. He has a trike trailer that carries his linear amplifier.

Bud is such a great guy. I always say HI when I see him at a hamfest.
