Hello all,
I passed my technician last week and will be using 2 meter mostly for a while. But eventually I want to do HF and will get my general in a month or two. Until then, I have a drake sw8 receiver Drake SW8 Radio Receiver (100KHz - 30MHz). I live in suburbia and have mast height restrictions. So I'm looking for recommendations for an antenna and what bands might be good for listening across the country or even from other countries. I live in Richmond, VA. For now just voice.
Once I get some experience I will get a HF transceiver.
