[DSP-10] W1GHZ meets WA5VJB

[Courtney Duncan]

I took Bob's advice and put up a medium gain beam at 1296, one of the  
"WA5VJB Cheap Yagis" from the 2010 ARRL Handbook (p. 2.69 - 2.71).

Still haven't heard or worked anybody but myself on the band, but I'm  
characterizing the system and listening on a horizontal outdoor  
antenna now.

Does anyone have any idea how much 1296.1 activity I should expect  
around the Los Angeles basin?  The next project may be a DEMi preamp.
