Harvey,

 

W5LEW here.  Just talked to a church friend who told me that one of our church members who lives in Mountain Home has a 150? tower on his property that he would give to anyone who would take it down and move it off his property.  Whoo-hoo, DX would come a-callin, do you think?  It?s an older tower but my friend said it is in great shape.

Call Rick Boles, 830-739-8957 for more information.

 

Big howdy and 73 to KE5DDR.  Miss yall.

 

Please reply to acknowledge receipt of this email.  Thank you, Harvey.

 

73,

I've dug myself a deep programming hole with my Kenwood TH-D7A not even a
FULL RESET lets me climb out of. I can't transmit, despite having pored over
the manual and troubleshooting tips. Does anyone in the club have or use a
TH-D7A so I can compare programming? Please reply via regular email. Thanks.

ISSUE RESOLVED. you know the old saw about a monkey, a typewriter, enough
time, and Shakespeare's works. It worked for me to find the problem with
this handheld, and it took only a bit less time than a monkey would take.
The good news is this little TH-D7A (6W) handheld and rubber duckie  is
perfectly usable with the new repeater location from the north end of Morris
Ranch, west of FBG. That's FM 2093 and Morris-Tivydale Rd. I can't even
raise the FBG repeater from here. Good job repeater jocks. and thanks.

Here is a Google Earth KMZ file for the path/line from the Kerr courthouse
to the new repeater site. It differs a little from what W5FBG said, so if I
did something wrong, I apologize. Check it out, though. Double-click on the
attached .kmz file and it will launch Google Earth (assuming you have it
loaded on your computer) and navigate to the path. You can zoom and move
from that point, just like normal use of Google Earth. FWIW, my path shows
4.56 miles at 80.33 degrees. -John

I didn't know you can't do attachments on the reflector. Sorry about that. I
tried to put the KMZ file on my website so you could download it, but KMZ
files don't download like other files. So, I can email the file to you if
you want to try it. -John
