Re:ARRL June VHF Contest - 2008/06/13 10:58
Bonjour,
As I know many VE2 usually active in all VHF Contests: VE2HAY, VE2DC, VE2XX, VE2BOY, VE2DSB etc.
I will work on 2 bands: 50-144. IC-746 100 watts, Antennas: 144 - 7 el. (3m boom) 50 - 2 el. Still don't have 222, 432 and 1296 rig. My grid square is FN35gn.
Many of us are having 50 Mhz transceivers. So you can easily join the contest. Usually 40 meters antenna could be used for that band if you don't have something better. And you can enjoy 50 MHz Es skip propagation QSOs with QRB up to couple thousand kms.
If you have 144 MHz rig and a 144 MHz antenna, better turn your antenna to the horizontal polarity for CW/SSB QSO via tropo.
CU on VHF this weekend!
73!
