Couldn't tell ya. I guess I'll figger it out when it comes in

My main motivation in getting it is that I was approached to be an NCS on the Maritime Mobile Net, as soon as I got my upgrade. They're in dire need of experienced net controlling stations, and I've been doing it on and off for a quarter century.

Qualification #11: 11) CAPABLE OF TRANSMITTING A READABLE SIGNAL TO THE ATLANTIC, EASTERN PACIFIC, CARIBBEAN AND GULF OF MEXICO.

I just don't trust my Gonset to be up to the task just yet......it will be in time, but for now I just want to get a good HF station up.

HF antenna arrays, though, present a serious pain in the ass . But to the victor go the spoils I guess
