I have used mine that I got from ebay called Dr. Dipole. I had it mounted only at about 12 feet and it worked well. Currently using a Sirio Boomerang in the patio at my townhouse.

One helluva pileup on 11 meters tonight. Any forum members on tonight?

Have called several times with some answering back but it's just too crowded tonight.

It sure was a train wreck to say the least. Heard several good clean stations but never could reach them through the clutter. Florida and South Carolina was throwing big hammers last night.

BBI is steam rolling in SoCal this morn. All that power from Idaho and it sounds like he’s transmitting from my driveway!!

Its been pretty crappy out here...at for me. Maybe if I had a base station but even base stations are complaining.

Conditions were great yesterday. Most channels busy with 38 all jammed up. So I checked the upper channels and came to 27.455 LSB that had a few people calling. I ended up in a 4 way QSO with Illinois, Florida, and Potts town Pennsylvania. We talked for almost 20 min. on this quiet channel and talked about all kinds of stuff, until my phone rang. I was talking on my Galaxy 99v with a D104m6b set at 1, a 203 and the Vector 4k. This would have been impossible to do with a beam as the other 3 guys were in completely different directions. Looking forward to more great DX this coming weekend.
