THE GREAT ANTENNA
This has turned out to be a fabulous antenna. The forward gain is great and so is the side rejection.
The front to back is excellent.
The antenna is extremely well built. Mine is setup on a pole just like the picture shows.
I can work the vhf repeaters at a distance of over 100 miles with full quieting signals. Super antenna as far as
I am concerned. I would recommend this product to anyone looking for an excellent VHF directional array. The antenna is nearly flat in SWR readings all the way across the frequencies as advertised. Mine is only 25 feet off the surface of the ground and I am happy with the operation of this antenna.
Its real easy to assemble. A child could do it.
As can be seen I give it a 5 star rating.
Thanks for excellent product.

Lightweight and easy to program
I have several of these types of transceivers. Some in repeater configuration. I also like its predecessor the Icom F6021.
These LMR, (land mobile radios) are so easy to program with the Icom programming CD. The program is setup in a spread sheet format. Real user friendly. The adjustment procedure is the same type of spread sheet. Again, real easy to use.
If this type of radio is used in repeater configuration I would suggest the power output be held to 20 to 25 watts output. I don't feel they are 100% duty cycle. My thoughts are they are to be use in intermittent service like 50% duty cycle.
From a repair standpoint they are real easy to take apart and fix should you be inclined to do so. I would suggest being very knowledgeable with repair procedures and good soldering ability. I have taken several of them apart, change main boards and replaced the final amplifiers.
All in all I give this radio 5 gold stars. Keep in mind Icom no longer manufactures this radio. Its been replaced by the F6021-51 or -52 depending which part of the UHF band your operating in. Five stars the F6021 as well.

Bird 43 Wattmeter N connectors
I found these to be perfect for my applications. I build a lot of coax cables with N fittings and needed these new interchangeable connectors on the Bird 43. They interchange with the standard UHF connectors. The change over is fast and well worth the effort and cost of buying them.
