Can I use my Diamond X50 for 2 meter SSB comms?. I have heard that you need to use a horizontal antenna for SSB on VHF but wondering if this is necessary.
Thanks

So a horizontal antenna will not receive anything from a vertical antenna and vise versa? I was hopeing the worst situation would be a lost of dbs when transmitting from a vertical to a horizontal antenna but I am starting to think that this is not the case.
Is there much ssb activity in your area,I can always copy the beacon on 144.295 that comes out of N.scotia,as strong as the beacon is at times I never hear anyone from the area,the beacon was 15 over this morning coming into ny fn14.
