Okay - quick update, since I've not been on a BBS is a while...

Temporarily mounted a J Pole on an extension ladder and leaned it
on the side of the house - LOL   I was hitting repeaters around
with NO problem - could hit Memphis (about 80 miles away) sometimes.

My wife's uncle has some old tower pieces in his yard he wants
out of the way, so today he's bringing me about 50 feet of the
'triangle' type. Next step is to get it installed and see what
I can do... If the J Pole isn't enough I'll get a base station
antenna to put on it.
