[MAMS] Enhanced conditions

[Dave Sublette]

Good morning,

For the first time in several days (weeks?) we had enhanced conditions on the higher bands.  The 10G beacon from K9AYA was 60 dB over the ambient noise.  Many days in the recent past, I could not hear it at all.

At least my 10G is working.  I am having problems on 2G for sure, and may have problems on 3G and 5G also.  I guess it is time to bring down the box. I don’t know if I am ready to climb that high yet.

I also have trouble with the 1296 antenna (again) and the 222 is showing a high VSWR. At least those two are “only” 60 or 70 feet up.  I can probably get to those.

Time and energy and weather will have to cooperate if I get any of this stuff fixed.  We shall see.

K8TQK and I were able to make a QSO on 10G this morning for the first time since we got his box back up.

73,
