I thought I give an update.
Since remounting on the ground, adding the simple 9 wire radials as recommended by Tarheels and added 2 (8 strand) rotor cable with each wire cut for a band, I've worked 100 counties. About 50/50 split between phone and cw. I'm using an Icom 751A so patience is key.

So I'm somewhat impressed.

Once the weather breaks (April of May) I'll remount it on the rig.
