[AK-VHF] NET: Saturday - July 19, 9am

[Edward R Cole]

Yes, there WILL be a net tomorrow.  We've skipped a couple weekends 
for Field Day and the Kenai Hamfest, but the net will resume regular 
schedule this weekend:

9am check-in's will be taken on 146.52-FM for ten minutes to 
accommodate stations only running FM.
But then the net will QSY to 144.200 USB for the remainder of the hour.

NOTE:  The CQ WW VHF Contest is this weekend (6m & 2m) starting at 
10am at the end of the Net.  This contest often experiences good 6m 
conditions so take a look on 50.110-50.125 for activity.

Also, a personal note that I finally succeeded installing my 900-MHz 
PA at the tower-top but only running 13w.  I blew the 900-MHz preamp 
so might be a bit deaf.  (927.5-MHz FM).  New transfer relay was 
installed for switching between 900 and 144-MHz resulting in a bit 
more RF on 144-MHz (old relay was badly corroded and shorted out at 
end of W1AW/KL7).  Looks like full 170w on 2m is being realized.
