[AK-VHF] AK-VHF Net - 17 Sept on 144.200 USB

[Ed Cole]

Net will begin at 9:30am on 144.200 USB: 100w into 11-dBi vertical.
Also:
223.50 FM 30w into two 11-element yagis at 60-feet
50.125 USB 70w into 3-element yagi pointed SE (az=130)

Hopes to raise repaired 2m yagis this weekend hampered by expected high 
winds.  I am building cross boom mounts for two 2m yagis (8-element) to 
be installed at 45-feet on my HF tower fixed-pointed toward Anchorage 
(az=60).  Another cross boom to be mounted at 40-feet to hold 440-18 
yagi, 900 33-Loop yagi, and 1296 45-Loop yagi.

But I need to rent a man-lift and have calm, dry wx to do this.

These will be permanent installations with equipment boxes mounted on 
the house exterior adjacent to tower base.

Now awaiting carpenter to finish shed renovation into new ham shack.  I 
will begin trenching for conduit runs for 25 cables to connect new shack 
to antennas and house power.

Also, working to finish 32-foot 2m-eme tower & array of four 10-element 
yagis.

Hope many enjoyed MARA Hamfest last WE.  Looking for you in the morning.
