[Wswss] THANKS FOR INFO RE 903 MHZ. NEED ANTENNA INFORMATION

[Mike Goshay]

Unless thigs have changed we on the west coast tend to use 902.100 as our calling freq. There was an extensive article on this subject in the DEC 08 QST.  
Just my 2 sense worth!!!  Mike g w6we DM05ki

  Team

   

  Thanks for all your helpful information re 903 MHz rigs. Based on your inputs I have now purchased one and I hope to receive it and be on the air with it shortly. I will initially have only a 903 MHz mobile antenna but I have acquired more Heliax and I am putting up another tower and rotor in anticipation of putting up a gain antenna for it and for my 1296 MHz rig. I have reviewed the available M2 yagis for 903 MHz and the Directive Systems loop antennas but I have been unable to find any omnidirectional fixed station antennas for 903 MHz gain or otherwise. I would very much appreciate learning what those of you who are on 903 MHz are using for both omnidirectional and gain antennas. I hope to be able to have everything together and operating in time for the ARRL January VHF contest. I doubt that I will initially be competitive from here in Saratoga but I should be able to hand out some contacts and multipliers on six bands from here in Saratoga CM87 (when I am not snowed out of my Sierra wilderness cabin I am usually on from my CM99 "summer" QTH but I am currently snowed out from my Sierra QTH). Thanks for any guidance and 73, Ted, K6XN. Please respond directly to K6XN @ ATT.NET
