KL7UW operating from my New Hamshack:

> Net begins at 9:30am on 144.200 USB until about 10:00am when we switch 
> to 146.52 FM (may switch a little earlier if SSB activity is low).
> 
> Net continues until approx 10:30am and other bands can be activated upon 
> request:
> 50.125 USB Using only the 3-element yagi pointed toward Anchorage
> 446.00 FM
> 432.200 USB
> 
> 223.50 is still located in the original shack (in the house 100-foot 
> away) so KL7UW will not be QRV for check-ins on 223.50.
----------------------------------
Jenne-KL4SE has a new 50w 2m radio so look for her on 146.52.  She is 
located 3mi north of me in Nikiski running a vertical antenna.
----------------------------------
Brandon-KL7BSC is on the Kenai this WE:

     Friday Night:
         Camp in the Kenai National Wildlife Refuge and activate by HF.
     Saturday AM:
         Activate Captain Cook State Recreation Area during the Alaska 
VHF-Up net
     Saturday morning - afternoon:
         Activate Johnson lake State Recreation Area
         Activate Crooked Creek State Recreation Site
         Activate Kasilof River State Recreation Site

For each of the Saturday activations I will be running a j-pole antenna 
for 2 M and 70 cm, and my usual telescoping vertical for HF. Bringing a 
yagi would give me more reach on VHF, but I just don't have a way to get 
it set up and taken down quickly enough to move between sites unless I 
set up the full rover suite.
----------------------------------

My New 80m folded dipole is up and functional so I plan to check-into 
the Swap net at 11:00am

73, Ed - KL7UW
keep warm out there!
