Been away from Ham Radio for over 20 years and am ready to buy a Yaesu
FT-857D (160-6 & 2; .7m, also 60m). I have a relatively small lot and was wondering with all those bands, what am I going to use for a good DX antenna(s). I have a dear friend in Australia that it would be great if I could hook up with him. Any thoughts? Thank you. Cordially, west AF4GC (Tampa Bay, Florida) |
