[NLRS] 5.7 and 10G demo success

[Robert E. Wesslund]

Hi Matt,

Good Show!  Need more demos like that to show the ham community that
Microwaves do work and work well and are not line of sight.

Two more Winona area amateurs got their feet wet on 10Ghz tonight.  Just
prior
to the monthly meeting of the Winona Amateur Radio Club I set up portable
with
200mW downtown on the back of the rover.  Another station setup across the
Mississippi in Wisconsin also in EN44 - for successful contacts on 5.7 and
10Ghz.  One of the participants is in high school.  The group had a great
time
- all the stuff worked well - had a bit of freq drift on 10G for some
interesting tuning.  5.7 was awesome!  Any way was nice to see the
interest -
one in the group has been an amateur for close to 50 years - never saw 10G
equipment before.  Hope we can get some more weak signal folks in the area -
never know  -
