System Tests
Today testing was done with a new mast, due to very high wind conditions in Gordon's Bay South Africa large towers tend to get destroyed in the winter months.
The new antenna system is a sloping end fed north facing to propagate North with a 90 degree arc, so in theory I should work all the north stations from South Africa., ie Europe and USA . Testing will show the results. This is primarily a Hamnet Node and Fire Emcomm Station but will allow public traffic on as well., please don't abuse the system with large files (graphics) its functions is text based email in the Pactor mode. A frequency shift was done to move away from a noisy band.
