Rain Gutter Antenna!

[Riverman]

I have a friend that started with a Icom 718 and a manual tuner, his carport and a good ground rod.

I lived in an apartment for a bit and used the rain gutters for a stealth antenna. Ft 897 and a MFJ tuner.

Jeff, I thought about using a remote tuner, but it was cheaper to go with the Chameleon hybrid coupled with my radio’s built-in tuner. Luckily, this combo works good with my gutters.
