Its called field day and I'm trying to get some of the best stuff I can... I'm having fun with it and learning more all the time. Why not help people setup their own experiences and enjoy the hobby rather than telling them that they are simply doing it wrong. If you were stuck in the woods and all you had was two pieces of wire and a K3 would you use the two together and save your life or would you never connect the two because you don't have any expensive feedline and die there?
Personally I spent the money on my radio cause I was allowed to build it and learn from it. I also get better support. True diversity with equal quality receivers as I plan on using the vertical with diversity RX. I also get a UI that I am familue with and find inruitive. Last I checked using LMR400 or LMR600 for a 100 watt FD station is at least someone making an attempt. This is a hobby guys. I'm just trying to enjoy it... ~Brett.
