Default Newbie Ham question: Antenna (Diamond X-50)

Well I would start with the ARRL page URL:

Then a calculator at URL:

Call a TV shop that installs antennas -- most can handle small roof top
installations.
Be sure they read and understand the installation instruction sheet.

Good Luck


Thank god, someone answers the question.

Newsgroups are so much different from the ham bands. People here are
95% losers, present company excluded, of course. If the original poster
would have been able to ask the question on the air, he would have
gotten a great reply. On this newsgroup, it was mostly ascerbic (again,
Keyboard excepted), which is typical from people who never get on the
air, and who probably don't have a license in the first place.

I'm afraid that newcomers will judge the hobby by the bulk of losers on
this media, instead of getting on the air.

GET ON THE AIR, PLEASE.

You will find that most of the people who get on the air are a lot more
positive and upbeat than people who can't get the antenna up.

All the best, and 73,
Dave
