Who runs a repeater with a few hundred watts output?? Here in Toledo, OH
I don't think any of the 2 meter repeaters put out more than 50 watts when the
AC voltage is on, most rely on good antennas and sites - not brute force.
When you get your ticket, I bet you'll find a fair number of people running
lots of power, but not many repeaters. The most power I run on VHF is 40W
and it does just fine. To do any better,I need to improve my antenna not
my amp!

SYNOPSIS OF ACTIVITY
--------------------
Solar activity was low. Region 7773 (S07W92) produced a
long duration C8/SF flare at 11/0505Z. This flare was
accompanied by a weak Type II sweep burst and a loop prominence
system. Active surging was observed within the region
throughout the period. The remaining regions were stable. New
Region 7778 (S06W53) was assigned.
Solar activity forecast: solar activity is expected to be
very low to low. Region 7773 could produce a C-class flare from
beyond the west limb.
The geomagnetic field has been at quiet to active levels
for the past 24 hours at middle latitudes. High latitude
conditions ranged from quiet to minor storm levels. The
storming occurred from 11/0600-1500Z and was probably due to
coronal hole effects. A GT 10 MeV proton enhancement followed
the long duration flare mentioned above. The enhancement began
near 11/0700Z, reached a maximum of 1.2 pfu at 11/0935Z, and
returned to background levels near 11/1300Z. The GT 2 MeV
energetic electron flux was in the high range.
Geophysical activity forecast: the geomagnetic field is
expected to be at quiet to unsettled levels during the first
two days. Brief periods of active to minor storm levels are
also possible at high latitudes during local nighttimes. The
field is expected to increase to active to minor storm levels
on the third day in response to the long duration C8/SF flare
mentioned above. Periods of major storming will be possible at
higher latitudes. An isolated southern hemispheric coronal hole
may affect the field during the final day as well.

HF propagation conditions were normal over most regions
today. Reduced levels of geomagnetic activity returned
propagation to usable levels over all regions. However, high
and polar latitude paths still observed periods of minor signal
degradation during the local night sectors. Similar
near-normal conditions are expected through to 14 September.
On 14 September, effects from today's long-duration flare may
increased levels of geomagnetic and auroral activity and
produce minor signal degradation for polar to upper-middle
latitude paths. There is also a fairly good chance that this
disturbance may not arrive. If so, near-normal propagation
should persist with occasional minor signal degradation
possible over the high and polar latitudes if effects of the
southern polar coronal hole arrive.

To: info-hams@ucsd.edu
There is such a program, a wondoze program. Golden Wave allows
continuous, "circular", recording. The program is available as
shareware on the Simtel mirror sites (oak.oakland.edu, for one).
The file name is something like "GLDWV30.ZIP" or some such thing.
I have a keyboard macro program that allows me to pass keystrokes
to the Golden Wave program. I have things setup such that I simply
click on an icon on the desktop and the recording process starts.
I use a ~850K buffer/file that is opened and to which the current
received audio is written to. This size of buffer allows 75 seconds
of continuous recording at 22kHz, mono mode. I use 22kHz for several
reasons. I use a real stereo and large stereo speakers in the shack.
The recorded sound is a heck of alot better that what comes out of
the tiny speaker on the hood on my IC-765. Secondly, you don't get
aliasing crap when recording CW. I recorded my QSO with 6W6JX
on 160M CW and keep it around to show folks that I really worked
someone outside of the county on 160M :^)
There are other programs out there that allow circular recording.
Look around and you will find something to fit your needs.

I've since moved to California, but prior to 1989 I made a few purchases
from Gilfer Shortwave located in Park Ridge, NJ. Not a very large store
(there are some really big ones out here), but they had a decent selection
of equipment and werecourteous and helpful.

Another thought on learning code. Get an all mode VHF rig - 6m or 2m and
practice! The FCC says you are allowed all legal modes on VHF, so get
on 6 and/or 2 with CW at your 2-3 wpm and before you know it, you'll
be at 18-20 wpm.

Mike,
You can always (under the current rules) keep your current call when you
upgrade. I don't think the FCC will issue you a new license just to get
the Tech Plus designation - why not work on the code speed & theory
and get the general out of the way??? Just a thought.

I don't believe there are any wide-area newsgroups specifically
catering to the interesting bands, however, there is a mailing
list dedicated to the theme. It is hosted by the Stanford University
amateur radio club and you may subscribe to it by sending a
subscription request to listserv@w6yx.stanford.edu. The mailing
list name is, aptly enough, vhf.
Try using the following as the body of a mail message addressed to
listserv@w6yx.stanford.edu
subscribe <your email address here> vhf
