- Greetings, I'm adding a 6 meter antenna to my farm to play around on 6. I have two options: 60 feet in the air on my tower with 200 feet of coax, or at 25 feet with 40 feet of coax. The tower mount i

- Tom- answer must be : NOT NECESSARILY! six meters is an interesting band, BUT consider that a friend has a 10 el M2 antenna at about 40(+) feet (maybe 60 ft feedline) , and, also a old (optomized) WI
