I have a Skyhawk and XM-40 at my VP5B QTH. The combo works
fantastic!!!
Please note that the Skyhawk required some modification per earlier
comments ( balun and instructions were crap... supports to hold the driven
elements stable...).
SWR... F/B... etc are all perfect ( Skyhawk highest swr is
1.2:1 anywhere on 10-15-20)... XM40 is resonate about 7070 at 1.1:1 with
about 200 Khz of 1.5:1 .... The antennas are 9 1/2 ft apart with the Xm40
on top...
Please look for some of the ops from this North Caicos site.
