Sounds like you were killing it last night!
I listened for a while, but unfortunately no TX from the house. Heard pretty much the whole east coast.

Yeah it was going good for quite a while. I was on 28 for a while. Then went to 6 that was fading in and out. The whole time it would fade out I would keep calling. One time when it faded back in, someone called my numbers and then was quickly covered up. Then I went to 38lsb and talked to Florida, Georgia, and Alabama. It was still rolling at 10 when I went to bed. Good times for sure
That’s awesome. As much as I really enjoy DXing from my mobile, I really need to figure out something for the house that won’t trigger a HOA Nazi full-blown meltdown. My attic dipole is excellent on receive, but no dice on Tx. I think I can pull off an end fed half wave from my gable to a pine tree...and that would be at least 30’ off the ground. Just need to get around to building it...and up and down the ladder 1000 times while I get the matching right.

Maybe an a99 painted brown in the pine tree would work?

Tie a rope to the tip and hoist it up maybe?
Or put a car in the front yard with no wheels and they would never see the antenna. Haha

Lmao. The brown A99 has crossed my mind, but I like the car idea better!!!
Im always on thin ice with the HOA..does NOT fit with my lifestyle.
Next week I’m bringing my equipment trailer and loader home. The rules say no RVs, boats, and etc, but they forgot to include any rule about heavy equipment. Lol.

As a tree, I don't care for the "pine" variety, but for painting a A99 and hiding it in a pine tree, it's priceless.
Hardwoods are few and far between around here!

Around here we refer to pine trees as Carolina Towers for A99 antennas.
