Comments:
Pete, N6ZE, & Woodie, KJ6VZC, operated as a Rover Station during the January
2014 ARRL VHF Contest. N6ZE/Rover activated 7 grids from Southern California and
made 134 contacts on the 6 meter, 2 meter, 135 centimeter, 70 centimeter, and 33
centimeter bands. 134 QSOs were made. Best 6 meter DX was with KA5WZY (EL18).
Best 2 meter DX was from DM05 �" CM98 (KC6WZT) at 295 miles. During this
contest, we used the 33cmband (902 MHz) for the first time and made 3 QSOs.
Equipment included an FT897 for 6/2/70, an TM331 for 135cm (223.5 MHz FM), and
an ALINCO handheld for33cm (902.1 MHz FM). In motion, whip antennas were used,
while we utilized short 2m & 70cm yagis in grids DM12 & DM15 in
addition to a 6m whip and 135cm whip antenna. N6ZE/R experienced perfect winter
weather: clear skies, light winds, & midday temperature of 80 degrees.
During 21 hours of activity, we drove 804 miles during the 2 day contest and
even got to sample Dunkin Donuts at their only West Coast location. deN6ZE
