6-Meter Repeater Antenna Raising August 4,  2004

Raising the antenna. Five members of the Brainerd Area Amateur Radio Club met on Wednesday, August 4th to install a new 6-meter antenna on the Brainerd High-Rise apartment building.  This 12-story structure is an ideal location for a 6-meter repeater.

Antenna in place. The antenna in place.  A great view is evident and the horizon/radio horizon is a long ways off.  
Glad to be back on the ground. Back on the groundn front of the high-rise, now equipped with the 6-meter antenna.  (l-r) Roger Williams WØWUG, Jim Barry WØIRE, BAARC President Al Doree WØRC, and John Luce WØJGY.  Not shown is the photographer Mark Persons WØMH.  

The actual receiver/transmitter and filter cavity installation will happen in the near future.  Stay tuned for details.
