Topband: Awesome 160 Meter Vertical

[Grant Saviers]

I lived on Mt Hamilton Road for 20 years, but that ended 8 years ago. 
I'm not aware of any hams further up Mt Hamilton than the Grandview 
restaurant and Three Springs Ranch development.  There are two FM or UHF 
TV towers on the hill SSW of there.  They are in the FCC database.  My 
ranch/QTH was across the road from the Grandview, now called Grandview 
Farms.  An awesome site, direct views to Golden Gate Bridge and Gilroy 
and everything to JA in between.
