I have redone my HF antenna on my roof . Using about halfway on the power knob , I have two contacts in Maryland on 20 meters :pimp:

Gonna go get some pics , BRB :D
 
Heres the pics . PVC support , air choke made from 23 feet of coax . The main part was tuned for ten meters , and when I got the tuner and a HF radio , I added wire which also acts as guys :pimp:

The little vertical coming off is my 2 meter antenna , thats homemade too and shares the pvc mast .

Awesome , wonderful tonight . 20 meters is jumping . Sat and waited for the pileup on 14.240 to die down , and I worked W9IMS with 50 watts :bow:

For those who don't know , W9IMS is the call for the Idianapolis Motor Speedway . There radio club do the special event calls for the Indy 500 , USGP , and Brickyard 500 :pimp:

Shame I gotta leave soon to drink beer and look at stars :(
 
Vacation rocks . Went up on the roof , raised it with some pipe , added more wire length :pimp:
