Dave,
Only 128 mi. I need to look at the terrain profile. We might have a clear line of sight or just a small ridge to diffract over.
BTWwe have worked each other in several contests while I was on either Flagpole or Reddish Knob.VAB is though.
I will check terrain and get back to you. Dave Petke and I are going to try a late march test, lower 6 bands. Use to test with him all time when I lived in Northern VA.
Greatly apprecait the reply. Will get back to you in a day and if looks good terrain wise we can sched.

I do not have any 902 here. I am in Farmville, FM07th. 1296 station is 2 x 70 element horizontal yagis at 55ft, mast mount LNA and 450w SSPA. Let me know if you need me to help with your testing.

Need to test 902 and 1296, prepping for June contest. Will br mountain top station in June, 4kft.
Anyone near Virginia Beach/Norfolk that has either band please reply by reflector or direct to Nosigma at aol.com or text to 703 678 6795. Want get dialed in well before the event.
Once 902/1296 dialed in will progress to 2.3, 3.4, 5 and 10 Ghz.
