Just finished repairs to an iced-damaged 222 yagi at my contest site which I
only visit a few times a year between contests - would anybody be around
this afternoon for a quick test?  I'm in FN10db, 100 watts, high elevation
but the tower is not cranked as I'm working on repairs.  FT8 available as
well.  I'll be here until about 1800 EDT, email or call 610.472.7373.

On a related note, does anyone know if any of these beacons are currently on
the air (cut and pasted from WZ1V's handy list)?

Thanks and 73.
