<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>For those who haven't worked him since the latest
changes, Glenn, WB2JAY, has put up the log periodic (essentially a horizontal
and pointable version of a discone for 6 meters and up to infinity) and the
Comet CX-333 (tri-band, 2/222/440, vertical omni) and has been on to
test.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>Results here were very good in general (compared to
what he had up anyway) and are as follows:</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>The log:</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>6m FM- full scale even at lowest power</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>6 meter AM/SSB just over S-9 at full
power </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>222- I don't have horizontal to test with, but
still audible on the stick</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>440- nobetter than the stick even when on my 19
element horizontal. This MAY be because I am pointing through all my
antennas to get to him on that antenna.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>2 meters- great improvement over vertical.
Will be interesting to see how Woody or Larry can hear him
now.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>Triband omni-</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>222- even at lowest power, substantial
signal </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>440- about S-8 to my stick with preamp
on </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>2 meters- at least as good as before, likely better
to most.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>If you guys get a chance, hop on and give him a
report across the bands.</FONT></DIV>
