Les,
Suggest you move the station not too close to the corner, that way you don't have 60 miles.
You will find 25 is pretty easy if it's LOS

James,
 
Took your advice and searched the archives for the postings regarding the Ramsey Kit and the XE2 attempt (successful) at VUCC. It appears that the K3PGP "front end" installed on the Ramsey kit might be a good modification to start with. 
 
I saw a lot of your posts, but none of the ones I read indicated how much you'd experimented with long distance work. One critical difference between the XE and our attempts is that we've identified a convergence spot that has easy QSO's with four grids (all within 2KM) and good LOS to a distant fifth grid. Our real effort will be making that long distance QSO. The first four grids should come easily. 
 
Please share with me your thoughts on this approach and others that I should possibly consider. Thanks again!
 
73,
