[Wswss] Fw: RE: Rod Adkins

I will pass along your comments to Rod-
The antenna is a non-directional VERTICAL stick.  I thought that would be
the best so that the guys in SD, as well as the LA basin, could use it.  
But, at the expense of the SD group, I will probably go back to a 4-5
element yagi looking north.  The yagi will be horizontally polarized.  
Please pass along my reasoning for the use of the non-directional, and
the fact that I will be going back to a yagi within a week or two.
Do you know if anyone was using the 222 and 432 beacon?

Thanks Greg,
 
If you see or talk to Rod tell him I cancelled the 75mtr net because
of the game and hope he gets well soon as we all miss him.
 
Thanks for getting the 1296 beacon back on the air.
Its much weaker then when it was at Jack's QTH.
Also, the guys up north have not been able to hear it.
Where is the antenna pointed?

Rod asked me to contact you regarding tomorrow’s (?) net.  Rod has been
in the hospital for the past week, and will probably be released on
Monday.
Please respond that you received this-
