Hello everyone,
I'm a fairly new ham & just purchased my first home. I've never been able to have a "base" setup as I've lived in apartments and didn't want that hassle. I'm wanting to put something simple in my home. I have a cheap QYT-KT8900 radio, power supply, SWR meter, coax cable, & mobile antenna.
As I said earlier I want a very simple setup. I came across this convertor kit (http://www.theantennafarm.com/catalog/tram-1465-1703.html). Is this convertor kit as simple as just mounting on the eave of the roof, attaching the antenna, & moving on? I don't want to have to put up a tower or anything like that.
