Some reflection off something at the top of that mountain?

First play I saw about 13 Amps being drawn on TX then second play noticed the dymo tape saying you're running 25 Watts. An old Galaxy antenna? Still see the odd one of those around.

Very nice.

Yes 25W. The Spectrian amp runs on 24V with increased power output. I could get I think 56W when I was testing on the bench, but as most of my gear is 12V I opted for the reduced power for convenience.

The antenna is a TP Link 24dBi grid pack antenna.
