Now I wouldnt mind going 2 hot, but for some odd reason, My back door on the bounceback is "opened". I am talking out the front and according to the FS Meter, im seeing just about 4db foward, but if im headed down 46 west in fairfield (for example- i know you out of stater's dont have a clue where this is), i can hear the ch11 crew in Newark as plain as day, but they aint gonna hear me. I didnt use any caps or anything other than grounding braid on the rear stick. I did however mount a stick on the rear with 3/4" wrap, and a 1/2" wrap on the front (spaced at 86) - that is the only difference. I am also super wide-banded. 1.0 @ 26.9xx up to 27.6xx and 1.1 up to 28.700.
