[VHFcontesting] 432 Sprint

[Ron Klimas WZ1V]

After having tons of fun earlier this week working DX like N0PB EM39 on 432 
and VE1HD FN95 on both 432 and 1296, the weird problem with my tower 
mounted relay box came back to haunt me just in time for the Sprint. No 432 
antenna available! Operated 1.5 hours, 40/18 using the 2M yagi for an 
antenna. The VSWR was so bad had to lower the power to 400W. Amazingly 
VE3XK FN15, W3SO FN00, W2EV FN03 were easily worked using about 45 degrees 
of offset! Was even able to work FM08. Sometimes it pays to try working 
with what you have. My apologies to those I couldn't pull out of my broken 
hat. I'm gonna fix that piece of crap if it kills me.
