    HS Is a good signal in Filey and can be worked mobile with 25 watts and a 1/4 wave on the car.....

    Hi Stewart Yes I am still trying to get an adequate signal from HS, It is improving but I need an extra 10 / 15 foot of height for my antenna hope to catch up with you soon,

    Just bought a 3 element beam for 2 metres, will put it vertical to see if I can get into GB3HS a bit better,
    about 8 dbI does not sound much better than my Jpole but worth a try.
    Regards
