New Equipment for 3456 Mhz
Slowly but surely we are aquireing the necessary parts and pieces for 3456. We have received the 976LY Directive Systems 76 el Loop Yagi. The LMR600 for this antenna is already in hand as well. All we need is a couple of square mast plates and U bolts, and some good weather to install it.
WE picked up a 50 watt amplifier from Ed K3DNE who decided not to use it. It just needs a heat sync and some connector wiring.
The 3456-144 is still on order from Down East Microwave. It will require cabling up a 4P1T coax relay for the 144 Mhz IF and a switch box to control it.
I doubt if 3456 will be running by the January contest but I’m sure it will be on for next June!
