[AK-VHF] Sat Net 9am on 146.52FM

[Edward R. Cole]

I have my work sked for next three weeks and do not work sat-sun so 
the net can continue unimpeded.  This also means I will be free for 
both 9 & 10 June for the VHF Contest.  I will get a new work schedule 
on 7June for the following three weeks so will have to wait to see 
how that shapes up.

Now it will be a case whether I can get my gear working in time:

Get 432-MHz 11-elem yagi with relays functional in new tower cabinet.
Build 432-28 transverter (25w)
Build 10-GHz 3w amp and get portable station checked out
Modify 100w 927.5 MHz PA and install 28vdc PS for operation from home
Build 1w 10,368.180 MHz Beacon

In that order (so last items are iffy).

On 9June the Net will meet at 9am on 144.200USB and we will check out 
other bands to see what conditions look like before contest starts at 
10am.  I am thinking the Diamond Ridge (Homer) rover operation will 
probably be Sunday.  This lets everyone get a good start on 
Saturday.  Propagation from Diamond Ridge will work best to the 
hillside in Anchorage.
