I am looking for some long haul meteor scatter skeds on 222 MHz. I can run FSK441/ WSJT, SSB, or CW. I would like to try out my relatively new antenna on meteors. The only problem is I will be out of town during the Perseids, but will be here for other showers between now and August 1st. I am located in FN43MJ in southern Maine. My 222 station is pretty good with 4 x 22 element yagis at 108 ft fed with 1 5/8" heliax and an 8877 HB amplifier. RX is a low noise transverter and 28 MHz HF radio. I am looking for stations around the 1300 mile mark or better. Even if you are not at a great distance, I would still be interested in skeds to check out the antenna should you need Maine or a new grid on 222. Runing skeds beats the dickens out of listening to beacons!!
