my IC-7000 works great on VHF & UHF SSB

Yes it is possible to talk a couple hundred miles easily.


So long as a good antenna..

Height works well..

Decent radio/mike..

No real need to have more then 100 watts ( i don't )


However it also depends on the area you are in.

But if you can easily get out a 2-300 miles..then you should be able to hear ( especially on contests .. although i am not much into those )
