Hello all this KC6FLG I will be operating the September VHF 9-14/16 2024 Contest from CM93 on Santa Rosa Island. I have plans for 6M, 2M, and 70CM. Will be running SSB and FT8. I will only be running 10 watts with and IC-705. There is limited power budget and back budget too. Everything must be backpacked in. The operating location planned has nice elevation and view that will be good for mainland US. Antennas will be a pair of M2 HO loops on all three bands. I hope to hand out lots of contacts for a very rare and coveted grid square for those who are looking for their FFMA. Hope to work many of you on 6. 73 de KC6FLG
This is KB8UGP Gary in Shinnston, WV? will be working 6m FM on Simplex Calling Freq. 52.525? if so, I would like to try to make contact with You.
Have not seen or heard anything yet. Conditions have been poor, where's the Magic Mr. Potter? Not wild about Harry yet? (1940's song my parents sung)
Yawn, The last time I heard anyone on any VHF bands up here in CN84 was way back in 2022 when my neighbor got on 52.525 and called me. Now that my neighbor has become inactive I removed all my VHF antennas this summer when the E season never materialized. I seriously doubt that anyone will be around this year from the pacific northwest.
