[AReU] Next Tuesday's AREU Meeting

[Tony Stone]

I have completed two transverters for the 3 cm band (10368 MHz). 
I will bring them to the meeting for show and tell. I also have two 
tripods but I don't know if I will have the mounting hardware on one 
of them. 
I also have two high gain antennas but will not bring then as they are 
not mounted on the tripods and are not aligned. 
I would like to get a group together in the near future to set up these 
stations on high spots in the area (preferably 5 or 10 miles apart) and 
try for a QSO. 
The transverters and the antennas are probably good for 200 or so 
miles on a line of sight path. 
The Brandon Hospital parking garage top level would be fairly good 
in Brandon. 
I think that MOSI or St-Joseph Hospital would be the other high 
spot. 


Has anybody else got some ideas? 


There are some good videos on U Tube about this type of operation.
