June 1997 ARRL VHF QSO Party

Makeshift Portable Station

Here is our makeshift contest setup ( stop laughing ) on top of a hill facing Lewis Run, PA in FN01PU.  Our antennas, all homebrew, consist of a 6M & 70cm yagi in the background and a 2M yagi (left, lower corner).

Dave & the Armstrong rotor

Here is Dave, N3BXK, with his homebrew 3-element six meter yagi.*

*Note the famous Armstrong Rotor method.

Contacting Canada

Here is Dave, N3BXK, working a Canadian station on six meters with the Kenwood & a transverter. Tony, N3KTA, logs the contact.
