MNI TNX to Lionel for his years of work in providing this valuable reference table!
VL and VY 73, Lance













Hello to all

After 29 years managing the VE7BQH Antenna Tables I have decided it is time for a Fresh
Voice to take over the management of the VE7BQH Antenna Tables

While there have been quite a number of people who have provided input over the years
the following people have been most instrumental with their input:

Brian, KF2YN
Vladimir, UR5EAZ
Hartmut, DG7YBN

I asked Harrtmut, DG7YBN if would take over the management of the Tables
and he said yes. I consider we are lucky to have such a knowledgeable person
to manage the Tables. He certainly is smarter than me!

Thank you all for a most interesting 29 years.

Attached is the latest version of the Tables as updated by Hartmut, DG7YBN

Hartmut's Email is DG7...@gmx.de

My first encounter with Lionel was on he 14.345 EME Net back in 1998. I
was able to hear him on my 20m dipole (later a triband yagi).

Talking with a few other 2m eme stations when I was a QRPp eme'er helped
keep me going until JT44 and a 600w amp was acquired (previously used a
120w amp with four yagis on CW eme).

Later (2010ish) he sod me his az-el indicator system that I used on my
1296 dish (and since sold as spares to KL6M who uses a similar system).

I now use the Raztrack system.

But Lionel's antenna analysis was greatly appreciated for building
arrays and comparing antennas.

73, Ed - KL7UW
