The Imax is kicking butt. I made my first Ham contact on 10 meters in Texas.
When I told him he was my first ham contact, he got more excited than I got. I
figured after coax losses, I am probably only getting out 15-20 watts on SSB. I
am only getting out 6 watts on AM.

As far as CB and locals, they couldn't believe it was me because they barely
heard me with the Firestik in the attic. This Imax seems to excel on receive. It
is super quiet with no static.
