Hello Operators
In this video, I head out to the forest with the Yaesu FT-891, and a new antenna called the EMCOMM 3 Portable from Chameleon Antenna. My goal was to find a good NVIS configuration for Scandinavia and the nearby Baltic countries.
I setup the EMCOMM 3P horizontally, at about 10 feet, between two Birch trees. I used a counterpoise on the ground directly underneath the wire.
