[arm-allstar] Yaesu SF and BF888S and RF Feedback

[Ron Wenig]

Hi Joe,

Good job getting the BF888S working.  It looks like I can hit the W2ZQ 
Fusion repeater from Bensalem, PA so I'll be listening for you there.  
According to your website it looks like you guys had the Princeton Pi 
Day and Einstein's Birthday Party special event station today.  I'm 
sorry I missed it.

73, Ron NY3J
