Hi all, I worked three hours on Saturday and had one qso. Boy it is hard
to get signals in and out from a valley! I did manage to have a good
qso with a neighbor though, W1AIM Chip. I did hear several one sided
qso's Chip was working but just plain couldn't make out the other stations.
Some day I would like to transplant my antenna's up on a nearby ridge,
but it really don't look to promising with limited income from
disability. HI HI !!
Hey if anyone has a good home brew six meter yagi or quagi plan that I
could try to make I would be grateful.
I have a 5 element yagi I built last winter, but I don't really know how
well it works. ( judging by my one whole contact it's not a boomer. HI HI )
By the way I enjoy reading this news every day, its helping me learn
different operating techniques.
Thanks much, Mike KB1FVX.
