What is a good commercially available antenna for 6 meters. I have
an RT-70A/GRC that I'm getting ready to power up in a couple of weeks.
Would my discone suffice?

That might depend on what you want to do on 6. Local repeaters? Meteor
Scatter? SSB DX? I use a Cushcraft vertical (R6??), but I don't operate a
whole lot on 6. I have done some Meteor Scatter with it, some SSB, and
some local repeaters. Post what your goals are for 6, and no doubt you'll
get a big response!!

I'm limited to FM simplex since the RT70 only outputs FM and has no
offset that I'm aware of.
