Revised to correct idiotic spelling issues ---------------
Hello Again,
Well folks the 222 mhz Sprint was a bit lack luster after the great 144mhz
Sprint here on the East Coast. After firing up the XV-222 I found the unit
was oscillating so off came the cover and subsequently the PA got hot, on
went the cover with unpainted screws and all was good for the rest of the
test.
Lets hope for some good conditions for tomorrows 432 Sprint.
I will be active on 432mhz tomorrow, 10/4/2006 for the entire event please
look at my optimistic schedule:
7:00pm - 7:40pm FM18AX Sky Meadows Sate Park
1000ft ASL
8:00pm - 8:40pm FM19AB Mount Weather
1700ft ASL

I will be active while in flight and will be on 432.122 while on the move.
