Just got back from the Bahamas and I just wanted to let SE Digi
operators know that there is coverage from Palm Beach Co. K4PKT-3 in
Bimini and to a lesser extent N4HHP-2. RX setup was a Diamond Dual Band
Mobile antenna on a ground plane kit hooked on the gutter at 8ft on the
Eastern side of the island and behind a small ridge.
The equipment was not mine so the VHF PTT line on the ACC connector was
not connected on the Icom 706 but I was able to decode using MixW
Soundcard Software.
I am waiting for some text files from my buddy for both HF and VHF but
if you go to..

You will see where I was monitoring from for the past 5 days. I will
make up a list of stations heard but coverage was almost solid even with
the slap shot setup we had.
Rich K4GPS looking forward to my bed,tending to some sunburn, and
enjoying some ice in my drinks after so many days!
