Well, after a long, arduous (my opinion!) but enjoyable journey, I finally got on the air.? 10 watts, EPA into Southern Louisiana using a home brew 20M vertical dipole, thru 50' of coax.? RST of 52 (I'll take that).? I really wasn't sure how well my HT mic would work, but apparently it did well.? V12, Ver66.9.? Plenty of signals booming in, crystal clear.? Mostly from down south, but one from CA.? Of course most were running 1KW.
Thanks everybody for the help that was provided.
