Hello all!

I tried the "Skunker Vertical" today on 30m and it looks excellent.
My first qso was with EA6UN -BALEARIC ISLANDS - SPAIN. He gave me 559
and I gave him 559. He was running 100w and I was running 5w. Not bad
for a 7oz vertical! The SWRs look excellent across the band and the
readings averaged R=57  X=0  SWR: 1.1:1 on 30m. This Skunker looks
almost trail-ready. I took a few pictures today and I'll post them on my
website later this evening. 

72,
Ed, WA3WSJ
