2m Quad Antenna Build

 

开云体育

Good morning everyone.

Please fill this out based on your interest in building a 2 meter quad antenna.? We have not set a date as of yet.?

We need to make sure that we have ample supplies, support personnel for this project, based on the number of people that are interested in building them.? If you are just looking to learn, please fill out the form appropriately. Last time I really enjoyed this build, even though I wasn't one that was taking an antenna home.? There are several steps in building this antenna, but the teams that were out there last time, made it much easier for the novice builder.

Without further delay, Here is the link.




We are gathering a list of interested operators for a 2 meter Quad Antenna Build. Date is TBT based on interest. The options are: a single quad(driven and reflector, this is directional) a dual quad(2 driven and 2 reflector elements, this is highly directional and much larger, the 2 quads are side by side).
forms.gle

Thank you to Tyson for pointing out the needed corrections,? there were major mistakes in this form on my part.? If you see further mistakes on the form or improper verbiage, please email me immediately.

Enjoy the sunny Sunday!

Locked April Sign Up for Sunday Night Night Net , Net Control.

 

Ok, so I have built a form for volunteering to be net control operator for the VHF Sunday Night Net on the W7GRA repeater.
Please consider running the net. It can be a little overwhelming the first time, but it DOES get easier over time!
Just click on the link below and fill out the form. If you volunteer and you have never ran a net before, we will help you get started. We have a script and other tools to help you run the net and there are usually others on the air that can help back you up if you run into a problem.
