Mike,
I heard you working someone over in Plattsburgh, and I could sort of hear him,
but not well enough to work him SSB. Could easily have worked him CW.
I think I am a bit of an alligator on 2m SSB. May want to experiment with a
preamp until I can get my 2m beam up higher.
I never heard Duane; when was he on?

Reminder: tonight, December 10, we will again be running an informal test net,
this time on 2 meter SSB.
The frequency will be 144.900 MHz USB. The net will begin at approximately
8:30 PM, after the CVARC net on 146.625/145.47/146.82 ends.
Even if you don't have a great 2 meter beam antenna, try using your existing
J-pole, vertical, or other 2 meter FM antenna. While
horizontal antennas work better, use your vertical if that's what's available.
If you can have a radio capable of 2 meter SSB, check in to the net. These
radios include popular radios such as the Icom IC-706, IC-7000, IC-7100,
IC-746, Yaesu FT-857, FT-897, FT-991, and Kenwood TS-2000, as well as many
others.
Work everyone that you can, and send an email back to me letting me know who
you were able to reach and communicate with.
The purpose of these temporary net will be to see how well we can use these
bands for reliable simplex communication
across north central Vermont. We have had good success with 6 meters, and we
hope to do as well with 2 meters. Permanent
net time/dates will be set up once we see which bands work best.
Please join us, and forward this to other hams in Vermont.
