I ordered my first 2-meter antenna this morning. I've read good reports about the Hustler G6 and wanted something above average for my first.
I also ordered an SWR meter and 75' of LMR400 cable and a short jumper cable.
The antenna will be about 30' up to the base and about 40' at the top of the radiator.
I've already hit (and miss) a repeater about 50 miles from here on 5 watts using my TH-D74A, so I expect to be hearing and talking to a lot more operators.
