Antenna question. terminated loop under eaves. how would 2kohm linear
carbon pots affect the legs on the antenna? what kind of adjustment would
they give for balancing the antenna?

Looking for a base station with Wires-X for the Shack.

So I have been doing some research and would like to get a base station for
the shack, my first. It is Fusion Country around these parts and so
naturally gravitating to get a Yaesu but it seems I am limited to their
mobile units. So I guess the question is, should I go with the FTM-200DR or just BOCO(Buy Once Cry Once) and go with the FTM-400XD? I would think the
dual receiving would be a useful feature for the shack.
I have another question, how useful would the APRS feature be as a base station? Obviously the reporting wouldnt be useful but would the other
features be of benefit? submitted by /u/metalder420

Does this article about Coaxial Yagi-Uda antennas that are smaller than otherwise make sense?

The most common advice for new hams on HF is to try and spend more money on
the antenna than the radio. What if someone has a $13000 Icom 7851? What antenna to get then? submitted by /u/buckfutter82
