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).
