VK2/SP9FIH Update (Sep 07)

I checked my antennas and it seems that 10m yagi will tune on 6m band with SWR 1:1.8. So, I think we can try 6m sometime especially to Japan. Please send me email when you see opening between VK2/VK4 and Japan.

VK2/SP9FIH Update (Sep 01)

On 3rd September I plan to remove my 15m yagi and to place 10m yagi on the same mast. Thus all who need 15m contact please hurry up. After 3rd there will be no 15m anymore.

VK2/SP9FIH Update (Aug 27)

I planned to start working on the bands on August 27th, but surprises with my QTH meant I'll likely start the next day. The only place I could mount the antennas was near a large, old steel mast with steel guy wires and two large steel dishes, which caused my antennas to detune and degrade their SWR. Furthermore, there are a few trees nearby, which made things difficult.

I spent all day adjusting the antennas to the surroundings.
