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

Last week I used the 17-foot 10 dBi vertical.  Since then have a 
7-element M2 yagi mounted about 12-foot on a short tower.
I will compare how well they workwith 120w, tomorrow.

I am renting a man-lift on Saturday afternoon for the weekend so hope 
to have SWR fixed for the dual 11-element yagis.  Also will try 
raising my 432-18 yagi, 900 33 loop-yagi, and 1296 45 loop-yagis 
bolted to the 6m tower pointed toward Anchorage.  Mounted on a small 
H-frame, the top antenna will be about 40-feet above ground.

Probably only have feed lines for 432/1296 installed (reuse of my 
LMR-600 2m-eme feedline cut in two 25-foot runs).  Electronics moved 
from 2m-eme tower next week (hopefully).
