Congrats to Gary - KB8RQ and Lance - W7GJ operating V6M on Falalop
Island in Yap!
I made my inaugural receipt of 6m-eme signals last night and able to
copy/decode three stations (which included Gary):
073100 4 -22 1.385 38 3* V6M KG7H DN18 1 0 0.0
074500 10 -20 2.119 -19 3# V6M KB8RQ EM79 OOO 1 0 0.0
081100 4 -24 1.935 -124 3* V6M W5ADD EM40 1 0 0.0
I used my K3 with PR6 preamp and 6-element yagi mounted on two
sections of Rohn-45G tower. This places the yagi one wavelength
above ground which results in the major lobe of the antenna at 12
degree elevation angle when yagi is pointed on the horizon (I have no
elevation control). Antenna dimensions were modeled by Mike-K6MYC
with a gain of 13-dBi. The Moon peaked at 13-deg elevation during
this pass so was perfect position for my antenna.
Details of my station and antenna are on my website:
