I have a question about the DB base antennas such as the DB-224, DB- 420, etc. As most of you know they consist of folded dipole trombones mounted on the mast at 90 degree angles with a phasing harness to create a omnidirectional pattern. I have heard of pointing the trombones all in one

Joe, I guess I need to look at the radio configuration while I have it in front of me and on the RSS. I'm not sure what the current config is for the 16-pin data plug on the back of it right offhand. But I think to make things simple, I'll just use the PL generator within the rig itself. Mark
