Once long ago I was driving down highway 101 in my VW squareback,
operating mobile CW late at night on 40 meters. Rig was homebrew, about
8-9 watts output (10 watts input). Antenna was a CB mobile whip on a
bumper mount, base loaded with a coil wound on a powdered iron toroid
core, Q about 200 - 250. Worked JA, solid copy. Yea, that salt water
does wonders for a vertical.
