[SADXA] TO5M 14085 FT8 f/h

[Frank N7FG]

 Actually, that kind of works, Jim.  Antenna is a GAP Eagle vertical with all kinds of do-dads hanging on it so I don't try to get too adventurous with it.  Starting SWR at the rig was about 4:1 and the internal tuner was happy to oblige.

Now if I could only get TO5M to oblige...

 Frank, if you have a good antenna tuner it might be possible to get a 
reasonable enough match from another antenna to get that QSO on 30m.  As 
long as you're running 100 watts or less into a trapped antenna you 
probably won't zorch anything by doing so.  :-)
