Enjoy·weak signal·communications on 432 MHz and·designing unique antennas for that band.

Currently net control for the Contestia·VHF Digital ·Net, meeting Wednesday nights at 8 PM and Sunday nights at 8:30 PM on 145.000 MHz. Just set your transceiver to 145.700 MHz, FM, run a program like fldigi or Multipsk, select Contestia 32/1000, and all net member's signals will show up at 1500 Hz.

Polarization is horizontal and all checkins are welcome. If you need FM02, just point your beam towards Charleston, SC and visit our net. I have 10 dBi of gain over a 60 degree beamwidth and can hear stations with similar gain antennas within about 100 miles even when there is no enhancement.
