[SixClub] SIX IS OPEN!!

[Howard Bingham]

An M2 HO Loop would be much better than a vertical for SSB end of 6M band.

Loaned my mobile antenna to a friend for a few months & with a stock 
Ranger RCI-5054dx100 & the HO Loop about 20 ft, had QSO's in South 
America, Florida & several other states without need for an amp.

The above friend normally uses a SB-200 amp at 250 watts output on 10m 
through 80 m on a number of antennas from a Carolina Windham to a 
modified V-Quad CB antenna on a rotor for 10m nets & a Hustler 6BTV 
vertical at ground level without radials..

In short, I'd bank on the M2 HO Loop is space is a problem, mine now in 
closet of apartment, but Ranger was sold & now have only a Yaesu FT-857D 
in truck with Hustler resonators
