I just increased the power to 200 watts and moved the frequency to 137.775 to move more into the window.

My antenna is resonant but the matching transformer can do no better than 1.3: 1. I am out of the 34N20 fets so I installed a set of 30N40 that are a little harder to drive but good for twice the voltage. So far so good
