be a big gun
on 6!
If you want to be heard on 6, M2 Enterprises' antennas are the way to go. Choose from the lightweight, 5 element 6M5 to the ultimate, 2.5 wavelength long, 11 element 6M2-5WL. A single 6M2-5WL is capable of producing moonbounce echos when aimed at a rising (or setting) moon and full legal power. Imagine what it can do on Tropo, Meteor, or F2 Scatter!
