I was really hoping that this was going to gain some traction but looks like it isn't.
Big tough guy in shitcago that started it toned down on the big talk 12 hours after posting.

Yep just a peaked and tuned McKinley , I don't run an amp.. granted it was on sideband during the daytime using skip but Ive talked to Texas & Oklahoma on just a.m. too

We ran a single side band 1000W from the back of the mail room at Yokota, AFB, Japan.
1961-63.
Worked well til we walked all over the base comm system! The space cops were NOT happy.
AIRC, it was an old BC610 unit that was WW2 surplus.
KA2JA, Tokyo, Japan.
Had lots of QSO cards from all over the world.
A friend here in the states had a 1 gallon kicker on his CB, in his van.
DAMN! When he key'd the mic it sounded like a guitar string twang!

FUN TIMES!

Definitely need the power if you wanna get out reliably, I kinda like the randomness of reaching different places, I've heard Jamaica Ireland Scotland England but when the bands are busy wimpy radios like mine are tough to hear.

First time I've ever heard that lol... From the ground it's 36' of 3/4 Imc (stronger & obviously lighter than rigid) then a 24' max 2000 antenna brings it to 60' to the top keeping it fcc legal lol.. key is using the ground to bear the weight then just a few minis on backside of garage.. all kinds of flex when the wind blows

Chuck had the setup that's on this p/u in the first picture on his Buick for years.
Could really reach out on the interstate to meet up with the hookers.
