Bob, DC through blue light is popular in my area <grin>... I live just South of Washington DC. We have probably the highest per-capita density of hams in the nation. You should be around for a VHF and above contest weekend... tough to find a spot operate!! Check this out..<http://www.vanityhq.com/maps/enterzip.html > plug in 22556 for a zip, and zoom out.
I really wanted a 500kHz split so that I could use the heliax-duplexer approach.. doggone REAL duplexer for 6m is pretty pricey. It also served as a good learning experience. There are a few pairs available.. but most are odd-ball splits etc... 2m pairs are non-existent, and 70cm pairs are extremely rare as well. 222MHz machines are popping-up all over the place. Many have expressed intrest in the 1200MHz D-Star gear, but it is cost-prohibitive at this point. One of the reasons I asked BobM about his 900MHz conversions.... 73 Mike Perryman www.k5jmp.us -----Original Message----- From: Repeater-Builder@yahoogroups.com [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Bob Dengler Sent: Monday, February 13, 2006 1:14 PM To: Repeater-Builder@yahoogroups.com Subject: 6 meter pairs (was RE: [Repeater-Builder] UHF Power) At 2/12/2006 06:44 PM, you wrote: >I had to produce a ton of studies for my 6m pair. I based my studies on Sounds as if you actually had trouble finding a clear 6 meter pair. Here in SoCal we have many vacant pairs on 6; is 6 really that popular in your area? Bob NO6B Yahoo!
