[NLRS] ARRL UHF Contest: K0CQ

[Dr. Gerald N. Johnson]

I plan to have a new FO-22 on the roof tripod by Saturday. I just 
finished assembly but haven't tuned it yet. It will be a pain to aim and 
I've not succeeded in getting rotor controls with indicators to work. My 
old home made controller rotates where the Alliance controllers don't 
rotate. At least one has a bad capacitor for the motor which I didn't 
find at the motor shop in Ames today.

I plan to be on Saturday through late evening. I plan to hit the road 
about 6 AM Sunday morning to go to the Cedar Rapids Hamfest. There is a 
slight chance I'll take a rig and halo in the truck and work 
mobile/rover but without a back up beam and probably not stopping on 
hill tops. I figure on getting to the Mid Iowa Antique Power Show at 
Marshalltown in the afternoon. Its parking field has a good shot in all 
directions.

I'll have only one band, 432.

73, Jerry, K0CQ
