Sept - 2007:
Microwave Demonstration at PNWVHFS Conference in Bend, Oregon - KL7UW & WA6ZKY (Gordy) Measure RF Power:
I have a complete 10-GHz portable station comprising of a FT-817, DEMI transverter,
and a 1-watt Qualcom power amplifier. I have several antennas ranging from a small
17-dB horn, a large 22-dB horn, and several 18-inch dishes to a 2-foot dish.
June - 2006:
FIRST Alaska Narrowband 10-GHz Contact made during June ARRL VHF Contest.
April - 2004:
Portable 10 GHz operation in the south Texas sun on April 22, 2004. I was using the 22-dBi big-horn.
Unfortunately, the sma relay circuit shorted out and I had no transmit capability. I did receive Bill, W5GVE
about 25-miles northwest of me. My wife and I had dinner with a few of the "Road Runners Microwave
Group" at a restaurant near our hotel in Austin that night and I received a nice certificate from them for
the effort.
