I run an RCI 2950 thats been peaked and tweaked and its hooked up to a Palomar 600watt high drive linear and its hooked up to a hard-mount Wilson 5000 that has an SWR reading of 1.0:1. I runa pair of Astatic mobile max's(co-phased) and hhooked to them i have a bad **** mic from RF limited outta Issiquah, its a 2018 Turbo Extreme. I can make noise for days between the mobile maxs and that mic. It awesome!!!

We are about 1400 behind NorCal, but I do not know what DE is talking about...they have had over 5000 posts in the past two weeks or so. They are real close to 11000 tonight.

Mike, It's usually not the antenna. It's the tuning to the antenna.
