Yes. I figured we could do schedule 1 in the first post. I'm hitting up the 40m and 20m calling freqs now to see how I'm getting out on psk reporter

I need to build another coax for my portable kit, so I setup the 10 thru 20 whip without having to pull down by 40m dipole off the mast.
I am also going to do a test of running my 40m dipole N/S like usual at about 30’ and then a random wire over the top going E/W up at 33’…….. see how angry it all gets. Otherwise it is too much doing all the band changes portable. |

I use an eft trail friendly 10/20/40 and I keep up a g5rv in the inverted v config. Something to be said for a multiband wire antenna if you have the space.

Otherwise it is too much doing all the band changes portable. I have multiple antennas for that very reason. If I am going to be somewhere for a while, I will put up a couple of poles with an efhw, and a random wire. I can also set up multiple verticals from 40-10m with a coil and 17' whip. For 20-10 just need a whip and spike mount. I have considered a rybakov antenna since I have tuners in all my radios. I think 40m would be better with 4 10m radials rather than his 6 5m radials.

Haven't made the last few nets. The time usually aligns with family dinner time. Anyone looked into VarAC ? I have it installed and I believe operational.
