Most 2m FM is vertical (base & mobile) while 2m SSBers tend to use horizontal. I did both and found that a 5/8 wave 2m vertical and 2m horizontal beam for SSB was my best solution.
Put them both up crossed. Put the 2 element vertical for FM and the 3 element flat for SSB. Feed to a switch of some type and now you got the best of both worlds.
Of course the 1st day it is nice outside and I go plop the true Rod Of God for 20m on the mobile, All I hear is a couple of yokels talking about bowel movements. What's the 6m calling freq? 50.125?
