[VHFcontesting] 432 Sprint

[lee bradshaw]

This was my first attempt on 432MHz from my location in FM17fo. Equipment used: IC-706MKIIG, home brew 8 element quagi and KLM 110 watt amp. The antenna did pretty well at 345 feet ASL.

I was only on for about an hour but managed to make 7 Q's in 6 grids.

K4QI was loud as usual from FM06. KN4SM had a very nice signal from FM16. Also worked W4SHG/R in FM19 and KE2N in FM18.

All in all, I'm pleased with the antenna as I worked everyone I could hear. Thanks for the Q's and we'll see you for the 6 meter sprint in a couple of weeks!
