[W6YRA] 448.540 antenna replaced

[Spencer Berger]

Here's a signal report:

I made two contacts with Ryan over the repeater. Both were with a Yaesu 
FT-60R at 5 watts with a Maldol MH-209 0dBi stub. I am very close to the 
repeater so it may be more useful to hear some reports from people 
farther away.

The first was on the Hill on the walkway between Hedrick and Reiber. My 
S-meter was full and your voice sounded perfect.

The second was in my room in Hedrick Summit. The repeater is South-East 
of me but I have a north-facing window. My S-meter was about 4, your 
voice sounded a bit staticky but was easily understandable; you also 
reported that I sounded a bit staticky.

(Looks like my last email didn't make it through since Thunderbird 
replied using the g.ucla.edu subdomain)
