706 MK2G on 222 MHz?
 

Anyone experimented with putting the 706 models on 222 MHz?

Is there a group where 222 MHz is discussed?

Thanks!

There is a group for people building Paul Wade's 222 transverter at
Yahoo Groups:
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/222Club/

See Paul's website at http://www.w1ghz.org/222xvtr/222.htm

The transverter is designed to mate with the Yaesu 817, but it will
interface with any rig as long as you're careful not to exceed the
maximum power input to the transverter. I wouldn't call the transverter
"super high end" so if you want to use it for EME, you might need to add
some stuff to make it work in such demanding applications. However, for
casual contesting and operating, it should be more than sufficient! I
have the circuit board for it (it's TINY!) and will be building it after
I finish up my 10 GHz transverter project (hopefully before Field Day!!)
