[W6YRA] Reminder: Club net Wednesday at 6PM (& shack tour)

[Jim Montague]

The swr on the 440 ant is abt 1.1-1 at the high end of the 448mhz band. Be very carefull abt changing antennas. We had a complaint many years ago that our station was causing a problem with another repeater site. We redirected the antenna to the south to avoid conflict. In order to get the match better the antenna itself must be adjusted.
