[AK-VHF] NET: 14 Dec. - 144.200 USB

[Edward R Cole]

Net begins at 9:30am on 144.200 USB.  I also monitor 223.50 FM simultaneously.

I plan to try using my four-yagi array running 125w though it is 
pointing East.  Often there is scatter off the mountains west of Hope 
that reach Anchorage.  If that is not good then I will switch back to 
using the base vertical which is omni.

We had four check-in last week:
AL7JX - S6 144.200
KL3WF - S8 144.200
KL7XJ - S9 144.200 & 223.50
KL6M - S9+20 144.200 & 223.50

Brandon-KL7BSC and I are discussing beginning a 6m net for SSB & 
digital modes (time/date not yet determined).  When I have the 
rotator replaced in my new dual-yagi array (with nearly 16-dB gain) 
working Anchorage stations should be good.  I have 80w and 1000w amps on 6m.
e-mail me your comments.  Our event calendar is at top of the 
https://www.qsl.net/ak-vhf/ website.

Jan. 19 11:00-13:00 a workshop/luncheon will be held in Kenai (check 
calendar for details).
