The Imax is kicking butt. I made my first Ham contact on 10 meters
in Texas. When I told him he was my first ham contact, he got more
excited than I got. I figured after coax losses, I am probably only
getting out 15-20 watts on SSB. I am only getting out 6 watts on AM.

As far as CB and locals, they couldn't believe it was me because
they barely heard me with the Firestik in the attic. This Imax seems
to excel on receive. It is super quiet with no static.

Sounds like it's time for a 30L1 or similar. Hows the tvi/rf looking?

Hey Jay, reckon his antenna can handle a 30L1?

I am not so sure. Is that 1,000 watts? Won't the antenna melt?

I'm not sure what the Imax is rated at, it should handle it.
