Position two metre beacon antenna

On Tuesday 20/1/26 Nick VK5NJS and Norbert VK5MQ re-positioned the two metre clover leaf antenna for the 144.550MHz beacon.

Previously the beacon was seriously desensing the 2M repeater and we had found it necessary to turn the beacon off.

Rather than being less than 2 or 3 metres from the repeater antenna it has now been relocated  about half way up the tower. Desense has gone and the beacon is performing as it should.

John VK5DJ and Tom VK5NFT were on site for encouragement.

Thanks all.
