What about yourself?


I use an Icom 706MKIIG in the car with a Wilson Antenna (can't
remember the specs here). The Icom has been modified for 11 meters,
of course, but it goes many, many more places. However, I am blocked
by the fact that I only have an 11 meter antenna.

Any how, the setup is great when I use it, which is not very much.
Someday, maybe soon, I would like to figure out how to make an antenna
work in my attic...or get permission to erect an outdoor one.

How much better or worse does your attic antenna work as compared to
an outdoor antenna?

I have recently resurrected my old GPA (1/2 wave), it is on the barn away
from the house.
Extra thick coax.
Difference is like day and night.
Less interference from my computer stuff, a lot more stations.
