I'm jealous! I just got an IC-275H and my biggest VHF antenna is only a
rotatable 4 element beam at 34 feet and the doorbell started ringing the first
week I used it. :-( If there would be more VHF interest in the area I'd
consider going portable. So it's probably going to be low power for me with a
FT -897 and a homebrew halo on 6m @37 ft and a 4 stack of halos on 70cm @25
ft; IC-275H at low power on 2m with a homebrew stacked set of loops @34ft , a
cycloid at 55ft and the small beam. Maybe I'll be able to make a contact or 2.
