Default Antenna Work

Hi Guys,

I've got some antenna work to does as well. I have an 80 meter Double Bazooka to put up and need to cut my old 80 meter inverted "V' down to 40 meters or homebrew a 40 meter Double Bazooka.

Mark, I'm using a Diamond V2000a with my TS2000. The V2000a is a fiberglass omni for 6 meters, 2 meters and 440 MHz. I've had it for several years and it works well. It will handle about 150 watts, so works great with the 100 watts from the TS2000. I've got a Diamond triplexer connected to the rear of the TS2000 and feeding the antenna with RG-8. That might be an antenna you would consider.

You don't have an antenna set up for 40 meters or 75 meters do you ? Was thinking about the possibility of doing a sked this weekend, during the day if you had time. I would also like to get a sked set up with Andy. Could probably work him on 20 meters during the day.

Have a great weekend everyone and a Happy New Year.
