The T was located on the horse trail running next to the golf course west of the start point about 3/4 mile. The spot was line of sight to Skyline so I ran 340 milliwatts into my HP attenuator set at 30db. I tried 40db at first but it never made it. The antenna was a small rubber duck horizontally polarized with the null to the south/north. The best access to the T was obtained off Brea Blvd. About 1/2 mile south of Bastanchury. The N6ZHZ team walked in from the end of Ridgetop Lane where the east end of the trail starts.
Once the teams left the hill I kept hearing "Is the T still on the air?!!"
N6AIN drove all the way to the Beach/91 and came back. N6ZHZ drove to Signal Hill and found the T at 9:30pm.
73 n6uzs.
