Dave,
Only 128 mi. I need to look at the terrain profile. We might have a clear
line of sight or just a small ridge to diffract over.
BTWwe have worked each other in several contests while I was on either Flagpole
or Reddish Knob.VAB is though.
I will check terrain and get back to you. Dave Petke and I are going to try a
late march test, lower 6 bands. Use to test with him all time when I lived in
Northern VA.
Greatly apprecait the reply. Will get back to you in a day and if looks good
terrain wise we can sched.

you'd like to try. I do not have any 902 here. I am in Farmville, FM07th.
1296 station is 2 x 70 element horizontal yagis at 55ft, mast mount LNA and
450w SSPA. Let me know if you need me to help with your testing.
