I managed the trifecta today. Flying, radio, and running. What a world. Have a great day everyone.

Nice job on the Trifecta.
Your picture on Google Earth (street view) dated 5/22 shows you on your tower working on your antenna ..... and they didn't even let you know they were going to do a drive-by did they.
 
Thanks. Yeah the Google surveillance car was monitoring me closely that week. I was replacing the choke balun on the 40 meter antenna.

While up on the tower I saw the google car driving the streets around me so I had a heads up.

The next day I saw them driving towards me while I was on the way to the airport and managed to get my picture on street view while politely waving.

I always wonder what the google bots do when they see me going a hundred miles an hour across the countryside. I use an old android phone for my heads up display in the airplane so they capture my GPS data.

Modern technology.
