The Rolla Regional Amateur Radio Society was asked to
provide communications support at the Berryman Campground
for the Ozarks Trail 100-Mile Endurance Run,
in which runners navigate a trail 100 miles in length through
the hills. The run lasted from 6:00 AM Saturday until Sunday
afternoon.
.
The aid station number 11 at Berryman campground outside
of Steelville, MO consisted of a pavilion manned by several
volunteers who set up food and supplies for the runners as
they arrive. The radio station consisted of a 2-meter
mobile transciever and 5/8-wave ground-plane antenna on
a push-up pole, and a 5-Watt Yaesu FT-817 transceiver with
G5RV for QRP HF operations. Both stations were powered
by deep-cycle batteries.
