Hi All,
Someone asked about antennas for 2m.
If you have extra 2m antennas, do bring them along. I'll be bringing a 30-foot mast for a base antenna at the fairgrounds, but the elements for my ground plane have gone missing. A small beam or 2 suitable for horizontal mounting would be handy for working the mountain as wide receivers on top of the mountain will be subject to strong interference from vertically-polarized APRS sigs.
For the closer-in exercises, vertical antennas will be easier as we will have multiple locations and won't want to have to steer beams.
