 How effective will a Mosley TA-33 be mounted on a small tripod on 
 a second story roof?  20 - 25 feet above ground, about 6 feet 
 above the roof?  I'm mostly interested in 20 meters. 
 
 Thanks

Using my beam at field day, they made 700 and some odd?? 20m CW qso's 
with it up only 30 ft or so. It'll work and still have the ??? gain 
over a dipole at that same particular height. In some cases, the low 
beams will have as good or sometimes even better, medium distance 
signals than the high beams. But like one said, for real long haul dx 
at low angles, like 20m at night, the higher the better. You will 
still work dx though even at 20-25 ft.  MK
