Northern Lights Radio Society is holding an antenna gain measuring event
this Saturday in Rogers (just NW of Mpls on I-94). We are holding it at
the QTH of K0FQA; Jon is wanting to unload much of his 50-year
collection of 'stuff'. Although his will be mostly VHF+ stuff, he has
lots of space and invites others to come and sell also. A sample of
what K0FQA is selling is listed at the bottom of this message. Among
others, Gary Grivna K0GX will be there - he has interesting stuff to
sell, and it's an opportunity to talk to him about that rig of yours
that needs some work.
The antenna gain measuring is for 144 MHz to 10 or 24 GHz. Sorry, we
can't test your 40M beam, but K0XL will be there with his sweet little
vector network analyzer that will plot out the SWR for whatever you
connect to it from 1MHz to 3 GHz. For gain measuring, they want to know
in advance what bands are coming to be tested.
Weather looks good, but FQA's pole barn is available if it were to
rain. Activities start at 9am and are expected to continue into the
afternoon; Jon's address is:
12285 Genereux Place, Rogers, MN 55374
Please pass this along to anyone who may be interested!
73,
Paul W0UC
