On the holiday of February 23, 2023 (the day of the defender of the Fatherland) decided to make a field travel to nature.

MCHS FGBNU "North-West Administration for Hydrometeorology and Environmental Monitoring" predicts: February 23, an increase in the southeastern wind is expected to up to 16 m/s. Be attentive and careful!

Despite the bad meteorological conditions, with the use of VHF antennas and radio station Yaesu FT-7800R I have got two radio communications on calling frequency of 145,500 MHz in FM (frequency modulation) from a high place in the Anninsky city in the Lomonosovsky region of Leningradskaya region.

The first correspondent, immediately after the first call, answered me, was the XXXXX operator. He worked with a room antenna (fixed near the window of his apartment). The second correspondent of XXXXX - heard it perfectly. xxxxx parallel with me took the range of 7 MHz in SSB mode, in which it opened "interesting propagation".

From the XXXXX I learned that the satellites of the AO-91 and AO-92 disappeared somewhere, not heard. Then I found the information in the mailing mail AMSAT that the AO-91 and AO-92 transmitters were disabled. The reason is the progressive drop in batteries, that is, the satellites have developed their term.

The antenna was directed towards Peter, picking up the best direction to the XXXXXX radio station - the signal, with the right direction, increased from 7 to 9 points.

According to the results of the field exit: it is necessary to redo the cable segment from the antenna to the radio station. Since the disappearance of my signal to zero was noted from the side of the XXXXX, a problem with contacts is possible. Moreover, the antenna threw and threw the wind. I also want to make and test and test 4 elemental antenna instead of 5 elemental yaga), which I calculated earlier, because It has less sailing.

In a word, according to the results of traveling to nature - a complete alteration of the VHF of the antenno -feeding economy is required.

xxxxx - data hidden 03/01/2023 according to the Law 152 - Federal Law "On Personal Data".
