I asked this question probably close to a year ago but didn't get much of a
reply..or at least to my recollection not a whole lot I could use.
What are you guys using for radios + amps on 222?
Antenna is no problem. I can build (or even buy) a small 222 yagi.
Rig is a little tougher. I'd rather not go to a qrp transverter for a
couple reasons:
Messy. Ties up a lot of desk space. Still would need an amp. Where do I put
it?
Ties up an HF radio and my shack is REALLY small...I already have 2 radios +
2 amps for HF (SO2R) and a separate
backup radio for same, which performs double duty on 2m (IC-746). Also an
amp for 6m. See my qrz.com profile
and know that I really don't have much real estate.
Does anyone make a 50w-100w 222 radio? (Ideally this is what I need)..better
still a 144/222/432/1.2 gig 100w Rig.
Probably what I need does not exist !
I do like reading all these 222 msg's though.
Keep up the good work fellas.
