Was wondering if anyone on here was going to this hamfest, How Far are you traveling to go? What kind of deals are you looking for? I'll be looking for dual band for the house, and some 220 gear.

Was wondering if anyone out there uses the 220 band? Me and few friends are looking into the band. Heard it operates close to the 2mter band. I know not many use it, which is why we are looking into it, cuz all the 2meter repeaters are always busy.

Was wondering which part need to trim for swrs? Its currently 2.5 on both bands. Thanks
