Funny you should mention that. I had several G6 and G7s for two meters and 220 from the 1980s that played well. Recently, friends bought a couple of G7-144's and they were nothing but trouble. They would not tune up properly. Joe [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Geez, I must have the only good G6

I have heard little about the SPIRT series by Hustler... what experience can you relate about them? Pretty rugged? Good coverage? -Mike From: Repeater-Builder@yahoogroups.com [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of k6jsi Sent: Wednesday, August 06, 2008 5:50 PM To:
