Antenna's
main one is a MAB 5 IT'S A 5 BAN 3 element that i add a 4 element up 60 feet on home made tip over tower that i built 30 years ago free standing { well so far } picture on regular QRZ
and next is a 46 foot vertical that I droped its bent but works
then a wire diepole with traps for 40 through 160 also trying my luck wwith a home made satalite setup works but it skips angle still working the bugs out
