New Meeting Location, and D-star for Beginners

The site is a bit smaller than where we normally operate at Hagan Stone, but still provides some amenities such as picnic tables, fire pit, pedestal grill, and bathrooms. There are plenty of trees for wire antennas as well. The tentative plan right now is to set up a single dipole and one HF station.
