Great antenna and very durable - has survived 16 severe storms (65-85 mph winds). Will tune 60m and 17m, even though NOT designed for those bands. Great on 40m & 15m! Periodically outperforms OCFD on 20m and 17m. Usually about 1 s-unit down from OCFD on Rx.

Use as base unit on 2m FM. Simple easy to use radio. The 80W output works well with the base antenna for an average 75mi range into repeaters with full quieting.

Awesome handheld for 6m, 2m, 1.25m, and 70cm. Love that it will do AM, as well as FM. Rugged and waterproof (tested several times on treks). My go-to hiking, backpacking trek, and canoeing trek radio.

Primarily use on backpacking treks and campouts. I absolutely love this radio! Have worked multiple DX entities with this QRP rig and a wire dipole antenna in trees. Also use for 2m SSB at home with Mirage B34G amp and Yagi antenna. Have W4RT OBP mic mod installed, which really boosts the signal punch. Lasts about 20 hrs on a 11Ah LiPO battery pack that will recharge from my Goal Zero Nomad-7 solar panel.

My first rig...built when I was 13 y/o. Spent a lot of time tapping out code and listening to AM ham stations, which probably kept me out of a lot of teenage trouble;) The skills I developed with this rig served me time and again during my career in the Army. Rig is currently off-line and needs a new electrolytic.
