[Mich VHF UHF Society] Looking for 23cm antenna

[John Swink]

I also have 23 cm with 2x 55 element loopers, Flex-6600 + DEMI xvtr at 30w SSB & FT8 from EN82jm.   Will be looking for contacts during the spring sprints and June contest.  Only made 1 contact in the Jan contest into EN92 on 23 cm SSB.  Very little activity on 222 MHz and higher bands.  Most activity was on 50 & 144 MHz and FT8.  Very discouraging.

 

John, N8WNA

Greeting,

 

I have a 23 cm setup. An M2 23cm22ezb on a rotor and ic 9700. I can work any mode, but limited to 10w.

 

It would be great to work this band. SSB or CW and jt-65c could work...

 

My grid is en83gc. I imagine maybe 150 miles is possible ?

 

Let my know if you want to try it. My schedule is flexible....

I don’t have an extra to sell but we should connect and work that band for the June contest!
