All right folk!
I have been lurking on this forum and others for over a year now. Tonight I
hung a 6 meter dipole under my 20 meter dipole. The result is that my 20
meter antenna (which was cut a little short) now has flat SWR on the CW
portion and less than 1.3:1 on the upper end and I have a 6 meter dipole
that is flat from 50.01 to 50.7. It is no good on the FM portion where the
local (unused) repeater is, so it looks like you fine folk are stuck with
another contact hiding in EM83xl.
My first and only 6 meter contact to date was with a mobile in a neighboring
town. Maybe with a real antenna I can now hear someone else too.
Hope to see you there.
