SSB

It depends what part of the country you live in for ssb on 2 meters. When I ran ssb I ran 75 watts to a 8 element beam if I remember from Southern INDIANA, and could work..Tenn, Alabama, Florida in the evenings, and the antenna was at 45 feet....A few big storms took the system down, but I always found it fun to have a distant qso on 2 meters...by all means I would own a FT857d all mode, all band..I have had one for 3 or 4 years..it does all I want..
