Thanks for letting me in the group!

Just wanted to let you all know I'll be operating from cape naturaliste for next weekend's vhf uhf field day if the weather is acceptable. Will be running all the modes on 6/2/70.

About 200kms from Perth

Hi Martin

Will hopefully start around 1-2pm on Saturday the 20th then pack down in the evening, I can run ssb, fm and also ft8, q65, js8 .. if there is any interest 

I'm thinking of having the yagis horizontal but I can make the 2m/70cm one vertical if needed, probably also have the 2m flowerpot setup for the locals

Cheers

Hey Kevin, 

Great to work you so many times in the past contests, I think with yagis on both ends it shouldn't be difficult to cover the distance and looking at hepburn the conditions seem to be shaping up well.

Cheers

Mack

G'day Mack,

I hope that the wx is good for you!

I plan to be active for the VHF/UHF Contest from Keysbrook  

(OF87AM06).

The site is about 260m AMSL and 50 km South of  Perth CBD.

I'll be there on Saturday, hopefully from about 1100H to 1800H.

I'll take Yagis for 2m, 70cm & 23cm, using Vertical polarity and can point them towards Cape Naturaliste. I'll primarily work FM voice. I'll also have 6m on a whip on the vehicle.

Hope to swap some numbers with you!

Cheers,

Kevin

I’ll be on after work if anyone is still on air.

This is also great opportunity to fire up the clubs shack on Saturday arvo.
