Aurora 23 is two weeks from tomorrow, 2 June.  (There will NOT be a monthly Breakfast
which in June falls on the 1st Saturday !)

We will be running an antenna range as usual in the morning, 0800 to 1100.  We'll do 2m,
222 and 432  MHz for sure and MAYBE 902/903 and 1296 antennas.  (The 902/1296 will be on a
time allowed basis.)

We'll have one new feature this year:  an SWR sweep around the "design" frequency and the
input impedance at the test frequency (ex: a 144.1 MHz antenna will sweep from ~130-150
MHz, and Zin at 144.2 is, say 46j-20 ohms- ~1:1.5 SWR.)

We test at 144.2, 222.1, 432.1, 902.1/903.1 and 1296.1 MHz

To  get your antennas measured you MUST let us know ahead of time (as soon as possible -
NOT Friday night, 2 June)   E-mail me with what you'll bring wa2voi [AT] ARRL.net

See you at Aurora (with or without antennas) !
