Well, I got it on the roof....

The lowest SWR is 1.7:1 on my target freq of 27.555

I'm betting the proximity of the house (2 story house, 1 story garage roof) is what is killing me...

well, I might be better off sticking with the 1/4Wave GP....

But like I said, $50 in copper is better spent trying to build an Antenna then say.. drinking it...

I might have to try the Phased Verts instead... I have a couple of 102" whips and few morals.....
