Here are a few pics of my antenna. It is a Signal Engineering Lightning 6 Quad. It is up about 60' on my crank up tower. If you look just below the Beam is a 2meter ground plane antenna also. The beam is fed with LMR 400uf coax and the 2meter antenna is fed with RG 213. Enjoy!! 685 MD   |

The loss on 2 meters is much higher than on CB and the LMR400 would be a better choice there. |

I run more power into the beam. The 2 meter works great as is for now. I am going to install LMR600UF on the beam shortly. I will swap out the 213 with the old lmr 400UF
