[MRCA] Gilbert VHF

[Al Klase]

Rob, et al,

Yes, the FT-817 will do 6-meters as well.  I need to determine if a 
151.4 PL tone will open the squelch on the mil rigs.  I found plans for 
a nifty field-expedient ground plane, made from commo wire and hung from 
a tree, that I want to try on 51.0.

I've been thinking it would be good to have a second op stay at 
Gilbert.  I did that last year.

Regards,
Al
