...and you're still alive! You remind me of those old oilfield roughnecks that would smell and taste mud for indications of oil at the mud pit!:tongue_smilie:
I've just was reading some info on these "secret" channels. What are they, and why did they get skipped? The artical says that they were pirate channels, and they list 22A and 22B.
Basically these are skipped channels (10KHz spacing) but WHY!!
Start from scratch this is what I've came up with...
30ft pushup poll
Maco V-quad
guy wire with clamps
50 ft Radioshack coax and coax standoffs

Also I noticed nobody mentioned the A-99, it is cheaper than a Imax.
Which antenna would work best(performance) on a 30ft push up pole?
I notice that the V-quad has a "Stacking Kit available" at Copper. Just how far would one need to separate antennas to stack them properly?
Looking at the stacking kit, the antennas are not that far apart. I was under the...
How many watts does a DX959 put out stock, and after a peak?
pawn shops are selling used Galaxy DX959's for $149 dollars, used in like new condition. :scared:
