[AK-VHF] NET & VHF Contest tomorrow Jan.20

[Christopher Brown]

Do you have WSJT-X 1.8.0 operational for that radio?

FT8 in NA contest mode or JT65 would be valid for the contest right?

I don't have the cabling in place for 2M, 220, 70cm, 23cm right now, but
6M FT8 or JT65, thats only a couple clicks to get going.

I will have

6M, 100watts, H dipole

2M, 100watts, 9dbi omni 16dbi beam (over ground figures)

220, 25watts, 5/8w GP (added .6db NF LNA)

70cm, 75watts, 9dbi omni

23cm, 10watts, discone

All of those are > 310ft ASL / 30ft AGL in NE Anchorage

All mode for all bands, but 23cm is pretty deaf...Better than when I was
loading the 70cm antenna and LDF2 to the discone, but no LNA and is
discone...

6M in the IC756PROIII, 2M on the IC-271 and 220/70cm/23cm on the FT-736R
