[VHFcontesting] 222

[michael]

Hello Friends,I use a home-brew BCD decoder with my K3S/P3 to switch to my 2m, 222 Mhz and 432Mhz transverters via a hacked matrix relay..  My transverters are older DEMI models. disciplined by Q5 digi-lo boards..  The 222 Mhz transverter is connected to a Teltec brick PA.  The K3S and the 3 transverters receive a 10 Mhz reference via a Packrat GPSDO kit.73,Michael KB1JEY Sent from Samsung Galaxy smartphone.

Who knows maybe the Chinese will do it… I can get a 3 band BOEFENG for cheap so why not and SSB mobile rig ?….hiKeep pushing these guys… its been a 40 year slog… don’t stop…..73 Dana VE3DS_______________________________________________VHFcontesting mailing listVHFcontesting at contesting.comhttp://lists.contesting.com/mailman/listinfo/vhfcontesting
