Passed the General exam yesterday. Refined the home made antenna a little. I've worked 30 countries so far with it.



Also gotten into digital modes.

Congrats.

Your antennae looks a little short...

You could build a taller one, but that might require guy-wires, and some circus dude on a two-stroke might run in to them.
