wow. I saw several 4 landers, and got most of them into my log!

even made several QSO on 2m.
(having a yagi at 25' is a big difference compared to 10'...)

I just put up a short (30') tower with 6m yagi, 2m yagi and 432 yagi. the yagis are waay to close spaced, but
you work with what you can... (KK4LUM was instrumental in this installation...)


I found that the claim I had found that the russian coax relays work on 12v is fake news.
( I guess Thomas Jeferson was very wrong when he tweeted that everything on the WWW is verified true.)

I do plan to drive up to the Athens, TN hamfest so I won't get started until Saturday evening.
its a looong way for probably a really small gthering, but I am jonesing for a hamfest, and the dalton flea market
is just too many days away...


make sure to get the latest N1MM!

Hello everyone. I just wanted to let you all know that next weekend is the CQ World Wide VHF Contest. Starts Saturday the 18th at 2 PM and runs to Sunday at 5 PM. This is my personal favorite contest because it is just 6 and 2 meters. Makes equipment setup and operating much easier. For the details go to https://www.cqww-vhf.com/ In the past a smaller group of W4NH operators, including myself, have participated in this contest and done fairly well. The good news is they also have a club competition and it isn’t necessary to submit the club name and operators prior to the test. It is necessary that we be consistent in the club name we use when submitting our logs. I suggest we use the Four Landers VHF/UHF Group name we all used in June. The only downside is this contest is much stricter about using assistance. I don’t believe that we will be able to use the chat on Slack to coordinate like we did in June. Feel free to read the rules and provide your thoughts on that. I plan to be on and hope to hear and work everyone.
