Figured it would be a good time to test the new location and the start of
the VHF/UHF arrays.  I'll be QRV the whole contest from Mt. Vernon, TX
EM23je. For the first time in 6 years I'm ABOVE sea level and not in a hole.

Elevation: 475 feet
Radio: FT-736

220 = 10 watts (no amp yet)
M2 222-5WL @ 75feet

432 = 350 watts with AM-6155 Amp.
M2 32-9WL  @ 70 feet
Pre-Amp
1/2" Hard line from all Ants to Radio.


Can't wait for the VHF Contests to give the 4 X 18 on 144 with 1KW a good
workout.

Skeds welcome, watch for me ! it's lonely out here in the country !

Dave
