Comments:
After being off 222 for a few months with a bad swr issue, I got the tower down
last Thursday. Fixed a connector issue at the main coax to rotor jumper coax and
then mounted a pair of new DS 16 element antennas. The Sprint was a good chance
to give the new system a workout and it seemed to be fine. Condx hr were about
average some of the time and below average other times. As others have noted a
good deal of variability so stations would be weak and then come way up.
I was busy the first hour with 36 QSO's, even missing some time to help my xyl
out. That was fun. I was in and out for the next 2.5 hours and things not
surprisingly slowed down quite a bit, hi! Still waiting for my 222 Beko to
return from DL Land but the RIW amp was a fine replacement.
CU on 432 next week. Tnx for the Q's and to the sponsors. And tnx to Dave, K1WHS
for starting the Tuesday night activity. And to those who get on each week and
make noise. It's great to see the band being used more than I ever remember
between contests.
