[AK-VHF] ARRL January VHF Contest

[Edward R Cole]

Thanks, Paul.

There were two entries from AK for the Sept. 2017 VHF Contest.

I will be updating the AK-VHF website main page in the coming week to 
reflect 2018 events.

I have two major changes going on in my station that will affect my 
participation in Jan. contest:
1 - New RazTrak digital az-el encoder/tracking system on my 2m 
array.  This will also be installed with the new 6m array in May 2018.
2 - New M2 18-element 432 yagi going on the 2m-eme array (in center) 
plus 100w PA and preamp at tower top.  Replaces broken (high swr) 432 
yagi on tower #2.

Also welcome new member Jim-AL2M from Palmer, AK.  He receives member 
#78.  He has 50w on 2m.  He was added to the reflector last night.

Merry Christmas and good VHFing!
