I was to lazy to log since I was basically single band and had a bunch 
of other stuff going on this weekend that took me away form the radio a 
lot. Why is it the older I get the more projects I have going on at once????


Made close to 30 Q's on 2m counting the western grid rovers out by me. 
Poor band conditions did not help things! Mostly "local" stations inside 
200 miles.


Made a handful on 6 and 432 with antennas stuck pointed east. One of the 
projects is revamp that tower with a new rotor, longer mast, more 
antennas(adding 222, 1296, 902)... and a separate tower is going up for 
432 and it is receiving Four 24 element LFA antennas with full elevation 
for eme/terrestrial use.

Being disabled slows me down a wee bit these days... but I am plugging 
away and hope to have stuff up by mid October.


If anyone knows a tower climber who works cheap... like beer and food... 
LOL

PS Barry, VE4MA I had solid copy on you the entire time we tried. You 
faded to right above the noise floor a few times but were also S9 a 
couple times! QSB was horrible on long paths.
