    11 meter dipole vs A99 for base

    A dipole will be easy to hide and get it up in a tall tree or a tall object. Or like some have said a 1/4 wave in the center of the roof or even a short pole from the back bumper.

    Peak, Tune, Channel Expansion for Stryker 955

    Rock solid. I use mine on 10 meter also. Funny getting good audio reports from ham guys. LoL I have found the ranger sra 198 gives a clear loud audio. I use a antenna switch one mirror has a antenna for 10 meter and other has one tuned for 10 meter.

    Running FT8 on at 6666

    Yep don't take a real solid signal to make a contact. Tell the band starts opening up more it's gaining popularity. I run dstar with a hotspot in my truck. Great way to talk to people all over the world with out amps and tree thumping antennas. Digital is gaining a lot of ground.

    Running FT8 on at 6666

    Wow never thought about it. A lot of people using ft8? I'm guessing a lot here haven't heard of it, and how well it works even when bands are down.

    Is it true or urban legend

    Have a dopler system. Antenna on the four corners of the roof. It measures the difference between each one and has a circle of less showing me what direction the single is coming from. Can be on a doorstep on no time. We did a lot of fox hunts few years ago. Might have to break it out again...
