220 was much more active back in the 90s, Jim (I'm
in Torrance). I used it and the Condor system to
chat with a pal out in Parker AZ back in those
days. Now my only 220 capability is an HT!
All the bands up there seem pretty empty. Cellphones?

I was about to order the 222 MHz transverter
kit, but looked at how little activity there is
on that band in this area, except during contests.
Even then, about 70% seems to be on FM, so I
couldn't justify the expenditure.
I see it as a paradox. This is the LA/OC area
of southern California; the second-largest
population center in the US.

Hello Group-
Since Elecraft makes an 222 MHz Xverter I
wonder how many ops
have built one? I noticed that its more of a
kit, soldering parts to
the circuit board. I also wonder how much
activity there is around
the country on 222 regarding weak signal work
and cw/ssb ops?
I have rigs for 144 and 432 since I am an ex
Amsat opr.....
Thanks in Advance
