Towards the end of last month I invested in a new transmitter.
This one works on three different amateur radio bands and has more power that the ones I had been using. Last Sunday I spent the day re-erecting most of the yagi beam aerials I used to have on the mast.
The radio and the aerials allow me to work on the 2m, 73cm and 23cm bands. The latter is one of the microwave bands. The 55 element aerial for that is at the very top of the mast. Using 23cm depends very much on atmospheric conditions. They were nearly right for me to work a Danish station last night but alas conditions changed before we could make a full exchange of information.
It does look very swish. You have far more patience than I have. Like the 3D Call Sign. It could do with a lightning bolt or something incorporating.
