[450] hamfest tomorrow

Sun Oct 19 10:39:56 EDT 2014

Hi Bob!

Hope all is well with you!

Looking forward to getting the 2M/6M beams up next year. Also need to get the 2M/70 cm vertical up. There is not much activity on the local repeaters or simplex up here. 

A lot of other stuff has been occupying my time. Built a 10’X28’ deck, a rack for four kayaks. Before I knew it, it was time to cut, split and stack wood for the winter. I am also preparing to restart competitive shooting sports again. Managed to trash my right shoulder a couple of years ago and am working my way back up to the 65 pound bow. Hope to put a deer and turkey  in the freezer next season. Attempting to obtain as much food locally as possible. Preparing for other hunting activities, but don’t think that is of much interest to those on this list. 

Anyway, where is everybody?

Ge

Hi George!

I am listening (and calling) on 50.155 MHz. Is this the frequency where everyone is presently. I have 100 W into a 140 foot Cobra Ultralight about 25 to 30 feet in the air. If I am listening on the wrong frequency, please let me know. 

Shawn (or anyone else) wants to try an HF frequency, let me know. I can do 160 through 10 M. Somewhat less efficient on 160, but good for 300 to 600 miles.

My amp is down for repair, so I only have 100 W rather than 500 to 600 W.

This time next year I hope to have the 9 element M2 and the 4 element 6 M beams up.

Conditions have been atrocious this weekend.

Was on for hour and a half since 8am.  Made 2 contacts.

VHF maps look horrible.  Taking half hour break and heading to new spot.

Been forced to take refuge in HF yesterday!
