2015 ARRL August UHF
First time on the August UHF contest . .and first ever contacts for me on 220 and 1260. My newly purchased ts2000x didn't arrived yet so I worked 1.2 ghz on an Alinco DJ-g7, 223.5 fm on a tm3850 and 432.1 on the icom 706mk2g. M2 7lw on 223.5 and directive systems 15 ft boom on 1.2 and arrow dual bander for 70 cm.
Used a temporary military mast tower and a TV rotor to get the 223.5 signal out. Used the directive systems 1.2 ghx loop yagi by lying it on a bed and out through the window by about 3 feet to hit the nearby 1.2 stations.
Can't wait for the September VHF contest !
