  • VHF & Microwave Towers

    06/20/2003 | N3FTI

    This year I operated from a retired AT&T point to point microwave site now owned by Brian Aucker, W3JYD. The site is in grid FN10vh and is located west of Reading Pennsylvania. Sitting at 1320'ASL this private site provides excellent coverage in all d... Read More

  • The Cushcraft DX-120 Collinear Array with Andrews 1/2" Superflex feedline.

    06/20/2003 | KG4BMH

    I had a fun time operating this contest. Even though 50MHz was hot I didn't linger very long on that band, because I had a very mediocre antenna.

    144MHz was down from last year in participation. Saturday 2 meters saw a little enhancement to the Mid-We... Read More

  • Portable setup looking South-West with POPUP trailer to keep the XYL very happy during the contest.

    This is the second time I participated in a VHF contest, and was this one a whopper. 6 Meters was amazing Saturday June 14th all day. I operated from just East of Holbrook Arizona, in DM44xx, which is where our property is located. Here are a couple of... Read More

  • Contest arrays.

    This my second June VHF/UHF Contest and my fourth overall contest.
    Had a blast during the 6 meter openings. Racked up my best overall score.

    Just recently started to operate 6 meters and threw up my portable 3 element 6M yagi on contest morning. W9EC ... Read More

    This was my first contest where I flew solo. It was very exciting. I was portable at my grandfather's house in south Georgia. I brought only 6 meter wire dipole and a 4 element 2 meter Yagi. I did bring coax but no way to mount either of them. With... Read More

  • Air one...not quite meager and not quite fomidible. GOD Bless America!

    06/18/2003 | N2YEV

    Things are looking up...this marks my 3rd June VHF contest and it just gets better every year. It seems that more of my amateur brothers are getting on the air up here. Of course the fact we had a bit of an opening on 6M really helped boost the activit... Read More

  • Mighty full size copper tube 6m J-pole @20'

    06/18/2003 | KF4DVG

    Thanks to ALL of the awesome operators that pulled my call out of the mud during the contest! I operated from my QTH on the gulf coast of EM60oj with a MFJ-9406 and a full size copper tube 6m j-pole @20' and fed with over 100' of coax. Saturday started... Read More

  • The sunroon "shack" is a pleasant diversion for this weekend. Worst part is night operating when the patio door opening that allows coax passthru also allows miller moths to turn this into a multiop shack.....

    06/18/2003 | K0BJ

    Ive operated this contest 3 years with different rigs each time -- Ten Tec transverter, old FT-620 with intermittent rx, and now an FT-847. The antennas arent permanent so I just put them on a 10 mast for the weekend and run the rig from our sunroom.... Read More
