Quite happy to make the big 30 countries with just the IC703 at 8 watts driving a KL203 at around 60 watts into a T2LT at only 10 feet AGL.
I’m often tempted to go back to a 2 element monoband 10 metre beam like I had 25 years ago, but I also enjoy the challenge of working with the T2LT, decisions, decisions...
