I would like to welcome Juan N7JMV to the group.  I met him yesterday as he was looking for a place to test a MESHNET repeater.  As we were talking he mentioned he has an IC905 with the 10 GHz module so I mentioned the PNWVHFS and this Special Interest Microwave subgroup of the PNWVHFS.  

I have mentioned before one does not have to be a PNWVHFS member to join this reflector.

We also have a WHATSAPP group for people actively trying to make QSOs on the upper bands.  Currently we only have one WHATSAPP group and it tends to have a lot of traffic discussing many topics.  

Frank and I were discussing there probably should be a separate WHATSAPP group just for coordinating QSOs.

Hi All

I am very excited to have met Ray and PNW Microwave.

I ran into him by looking to place a 900Mhz LORA repeater close to his property, and i left having learned a bunch of new things
https://pugetmesh.org/meshcore/ is the group I co-founded. Its mostly around 900, 2.4 and 5GHZ data EMCOMM

Here is a presentation I gave to the UW ham Club

And what i think is amazing is to do a single hop from Haystack into BC at 900Mhz with 1W

Anyway, that is enough about why I met Ray. A have a 905 and 2.4, 5.0 10G colinear and 10G Dish but i have not been able to use it with anyone. id love to learn and play.

my whatsapp is +1-813-326-2024

Have you all considered Discord? That's what we have been using with the mesh and having different channels etc make separating conversations easy

73, Juan

Welcome to the microwave group Juan,

Look forward to meeting you in person, perhaps at the next build day in Burien.
I did have a chance to look at the two links you provided. I would like to hear more about this
communication system. 

73's and hopefully see you soon,

Nick
