S9V vertical:
1. Not resonant on any band - not even 40M.
2. Will require a significant radial field to do much of anything.
3. SWR on bands other than 40 will be so high you may not get a match,
and if you do coax loss will be terrible.
Forget it

Just worked John on 15m, sounds great so keep an eye out for PJ4/K4BAI
during the weekend then I assume they will go PJ4A right before the
contest.
Looking forward to 'Seeing' everyone this weekend. And thanks for
posting
this list Ralph, going to add it to the Spot Collector so all these
calls
get "announced". Have to take care of our own. hi hi.
Also OT, has anyone ever used and S9 Vertical (S9v)?? I am looking at
picking one of these up.
