  • One of many winged visitors in FM28be...this one checking our our 903 Yagi.

    06/21/2003 | W3IY/R

    We had a great time in the 2003 June VHF QSO Party. Conditions were
    great on 6m Saturday, when we worked 56 grids on 6m Es. My rover partner, ON1CFX did a great job on 6m passing out FM15 & 25, etc. to hungry 6m ops. Tropo condx were rather poor, howev... Read More

  • KI0SK/R operating in DN81 with N0BAF's home built six meter Moxon.

    06/21/2003 | KI0SK/R

    Roving can be fun even with rather simple gear. Dan (N0BAF) and I had a 100 watt amp. on two meters, but ran the FT 817 barefoot on 50 and 432 MHZ. Antennas were a Moxon for six meters, six elements on two meters and 11 elements on 70 cm. All were ... Read More

    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.

    06/18/2003 | N7EME

    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.

    06/18/2003 | N6VMO

    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

  • 06/18/2003 | K7BEN

    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
