While traveling south on I 79, just north of Exit 1, I spotted a nice ham
tower off to the right, some distance off of the interstate. Looked like a
nice tribander at a fair height, topped by some VHF antennas. Might have
been a monobander, didn't have much time to look.   Since I am newly moved
back to CRW, was just wondering if that is one of the WVDXA members? 
 
Conditions driving back from Morgantown (WVU) on the radio were up and down.
Worked several EU and CT3. Managed  5B and got D44AC on the first call (all
20M). Worked several folks preparing for CW WPX this weekend.  I need a dose
of radio, so might play around from the mobile in the yard, or work a few
with the temporary wires stuck in trees.
