It seemed to Carl.... mounted the vertical antenna to it (clone of Comet BHA-250b) this morning, hooked the Icom 7200 w/MFJ tuner and fired it up. Loaded okay on all bands except 75 meters. Condx very poor today here but did hear Steve N5YRJ down near San Diego on 40M AM, so gave him a shout and he said my sigs were decent, even with QSB. I was running 35 watts of carrier with that ricebox. Infact, the vertical element was actually touching a few limbs in the tree, but didnt seem to matter. I was just going to go out and test it somemore, but the thermometer just hit 110 !!! dont think so, hi...
