[Elecraft] 222 MHz Transverter

[Edward R Cole]

Unfortunately this seems to be the case everywhere in the US.

I may be the only one here in this part of Alaska with a 222 
transverter (One other ham has done 222-eme so that's two).  Most 
just buy a FM mobile or HT and get on 223.50 (Nat'l Simplex channel) 
or repeaters if they exist.

But a comment about the 222 band:  Too often it has the best 
propagation for long-range tropo contacts (bettering 2m quite 
often).  Really a shame it is underutilized by hams.
