Had a QSO with AC5UZ on Saturday night on 52.50. He used a 
SINCGARS radio at 0.5 watt with a short whip, and I used a RT246 
at 35 watts with a broadband vehicle mounted military vetical 
dipole. The distance was 4 miles through the heavily wooded and 
variable terrain of camp swift near Austin TX. Ok so not so 
impressive, but we enjoyed the experiment, did it on a military 
base, and used all military gear. HOOAH!
