Antenna dilemma
On my drive home from Scotland tomorrow I want to activate G/LD-037 on 30m (my favourite band) and 10m (for the challenge). My LNR 40/30/20 and 40/20/10 EFHWs have good performance on 30m and 10m respectively but have VSWR > 1:10 vice versa. I don’t want to take and setup both antennas as that summit has no shelter and ‘feels like’ temperature will be below freezing.
So for a quick setup I’m dusting off my Chameleon MPAS Lite. It’s best on 20m to 15m with help from the KX2 internal ATU. I’ve not tried it on 10m so it will be interesting to compare reports given and received with the 10m activations I’ve done recently with the EFHW inverted L.
