Eric Howell All Messages By This Member #8949 开云体育 ? I used my 9100 with a vertical tri-band antenna. I have heard the birds before but could never get the rig to cooperate to get the split just right. I finally got my ducks in a row and it worked. I have tracked a few others and will play with the SSB birds between now and FD. ? I have one of the arrow antennas but don’t think that I can talk Rhoda into standing out in the yard pointing it in the direction I called out ?. I guess I need to find someone to put together a AZ-EL controller…… ? ? ? ?
