Actually I have several repeaters still as Mastr Pro's on 6 meters, 2 meters,
& UHF back in the states. The receivers are very good at high RF sites (like
a lot of land mobile, TV, & FM broadcast). On 2 meters & UHF, I always run a
ARR GaAsFET pre-amp on them. If I didn't have TV channel 2 in Portland, I
would try running a pre-amp on 6 meters.
This is extremely COOL! I am sitting outside the train station at Yokohama,
Japan; using my PDA to access an open 2.4 GHz network for
sending this e-mail. Some of what I am seeing walk by me could almost make a
grown man cry!!
73 from Japan!
