Passing this info on from his daughters FB page…
A celebration of Greg’s life will be held on April 29th, 2017 from 6-11pm at the Puritan Backroom Conference Center, Suite B/C, 245 Hooksett Rd, Manchester, NH.
Family and friends are invited to share their favorite memories of Greg over food and drink.
Even if you can’t make it, I’m sure he’d appreciate a toast and a nod from wherever you are.
Wow! Congratulations to Aron, Abby, and Jeremy – it sounds like they were pretty busy. I wish I could have joined you in operating N1FD but I had family commitments that I couldn’t free myself from.
I did hear Aron on the air and he sounded great. I tried to work him on 20M before I stepped out but he wasn’t able to hear me due to being too close.
Anyway, great job everyone.

Hi Matt
Thanks for the reply, I have the software and cable already, The system is Analog it is Concord Fire Alarm. I have talked to some others interested in this and they dont really care about APRS system as the pager does not have a locator in them anyway. The research I did shows that there is a PL code and their might be some Motorola tones as well, I am guessing that these little radios cannot handle the Moto tones.

Here’s what I did: Check VOACAP online

for the best band between Nashua and Sacramento.

Go the that band and find a clear spot on the waterfall. Then fire up and Call CQ. Now you can hear yourself as received on the West Coast!
Tony,
The Bend-Gard owner has brought some of his products to demo to the Near-Fest ham radio flea-market over the last couple of years. So you could contact him to see if he’ll be there again this year (depending on your schedule).
Near-Fest also usually has another vendor that brings along a large collection of military surplus masts, base, rings and accessories. The masts are stackable 4ft sections of fiberglass (estimate 1.5 inches in diameter, or also they have available stackable aluminum sessions. Unfortunately, I don’t have a link for these, but believe they come from upstate New York.
Hope this helps.
Mike
