Hi yes I do have ali poles so when I operate I try and do minimum 20ft with the Gain Master. The tripods look good and I have a small one which I used when I started back up in March.

On this topic I was really just wondering if ground mounting is a viable DX strategy as some have said 5/8 waves etc. can work as well on the ground as they do up in the air, in terms of take off angles.

I am dubious as to whether they can personally.I think you need many radials for this to work well which in itself seems to be quite a lot of work.
