Roger That KE8OKM Using the M15 mast I rigged a inverted V dipole (16.5 ft legs) Sees to work great with my 20w g90. I will put it to the test by joining WFD (winter field day) on the 28 of Jan. Hope to work some other cursing (real ) yachts from the Pelican (M15 pocket yacht) . Have you worked any vessels at sea? Capt.
