I reserved the site for us when we were there in June, so we are ready to go
on that front.

I am (or will be) prepared to do 6M as usual.  I did some modifications to
my amp, and it seems to be more stable, however the input SWR is high now so
I need to do some more work on it.  I also had my first FSK441 qso during
the CQ VHF contest a couple of weeks ago.  It was a lot easier that I
thought.  The only problem I encountered was the need for a second serial
port to control the PTT line from the software.  I ended up just using VOX
which worked fine.  Schedules are a MUST for this mode.  I feel we should
make a concerted effort to have this operational on 6 and 2.

Neal, K4EA
