Ham Radio and Summits On The Air. Saturday, February 7, 2015. W4V/GC-001 - High Knob. On Saturday, February 7, 2015. The family and I along with David (KK4QML) and company successfully activated the summit. Trying to make our first HF appearance, nothing was going right. We had problems. Come to find out our hook up was incorrect. So we activated the summit with 2 meter FM. W4V/GC-001 (High Knob); Elevation: 4,216 ft; Points: 10. February 7, 2015. Highs in the 40's and sunny, very windy.
