OAUSA Net - November 8, 2012 - Propagaition

[DaveK]

Our guest this week will be Chip Margelli, K7JA. Chip's expertise in Amateur radio makes him a highly sought-after speaker and a great source of Ham radio technical information. Tonight's net will concentrate on a topic of interest to all Hams - propagation. Whether you are operating from home or the wilderness, this is a discussion that shouldn't be missed.

Some of you may remember Chip for his lightening performance on the Jay Leno show. If not YOU MUST SEE THIS: http://adjunct.diodon349.com/Radio/Imag ... _05_13.wmv

Join "Cool Hand Chip" for a great net.

I'm gonna try to find a good spot in my backyard for the Palomar Repeater. Don't think I can hit Keller with only 5W, I can only barely pick it up.
