Maybe. I have a Hy-Gain DB-1217 at 60' on 17, my favorite band, an
Explorer-14 at 50', plus an AL 1500 behind it. I worked The Montenegro
easiest on 40 CW with 100W to a rotatable dipole, and I can barely just
copy my call and get a reply back on CW.
At my vacation home I have a 17M kind-of-inverted-vee and could hear
swain's well enough to copy. Barefoot here, I didn't even try to call when
I listened to the big guns up 5 to 10 -- especially the 6's. I know --
that's how I sound to THEM with MY KW when they first tried to work
Montenegro.
I suspect there will be many more trips to KH8 Swain's and I won't be
missing it for long.
It's a game that I enjoy and these additions got me back on the air after
a year and a half of almost no activity.
