When mobile, I run 500-1KW into a davemade 1/2 wave electrical length mobile antenna, 1/4 wave physical length. I get excellent signal reports all the time, lots from australia when the skip is in, I guess the thing is getting out...

Yes, most any town/city will have some cb'ers... You should have at
least a 100 watt linear behind the radio though, so you are able to get
some distance, just in case you break down more than a couple of miles
from a town/city...

I have to agree with that. Most times I can run barefoot, but it's nice
to have the boost (and the preamp) once in a while.


I hit Europe and South America witha ****ty 2 pill Palomar 225, and a Wilson
