I am looking to set up a 2 meter in my home. I have been looking over several different antenna makes/models and I am leaning towards a Tram brand,model 1481 or a 1490.

I am wondering if anyone here has had any experience with these antennas and what your thoughts on these antennas.

    Coax question. I just put up a new Sirio monsoon base antenna with 100’ of rg8u coax testing with myMFJ antenna analyzer shows 1.4 swr at 26.965mhz and a 1.1 at 27.405 mhz . When I checked the ohms it’s steady a 30 ohms across the entire bandwidth.
  • @ Geoexplorer69:
    Is 30 ohms worth worrying about in a 100’ run of rg8u ?
