Some late morning/early afternoon #hamradio #amateurradio #FT8 activation into Canada, New England, Florida and upper Midwest with 2 element #buddipole #yagi
Reacquainted with #Buddipole 2 Element #Yagi setup for Six Meters and worked some #FT8 and tried some SSB. Just might try upcoming #AmateurRadio #HamRadio #ARRLVHFcontest. Might make it interesting and operate #QRP
Not bad. First time I see a positive dB value!
#meshcore #lora #868 #yagi
just tested my #Yagi by #DK7ZB and had my first contact in simplex #145500 with #HA6VSR

even without choke and #NanoVNA this #antenna worked surprisingly well, good report, 59+20
RECEIVED APRS! working!
soon ISS SSTV receiving

the antenna - 4el-50Ohm-Yagi by DK7ZB, PVC pipe boom and alu tube elements;

since I don’t have a crimper, will probably abandon the BNC-BNC part and mount RG-58 -> SMA directly to rediator element. (I struggled with making a good connection on the boom for the BNC, wanted to make it cool but without a crimper it sucks)
