Normally found on 20m ssb  between 14.240 / 14.275 mhz

After a bit of experimentation, I have found a way to operate mobile whilst in Europe and not have my antenna damaged by the low bridges .
I now tie some nylon from the top of my whip and tie it of to the rear of the truck cab. Extensive analysis shows that the SWR is not badly degraded on 20/15 & 10
however 40 & 80 are no go areas. Any suggestions are welcome. I will be publishing pictures on my mobile ops page in due course.

Working as a truck driver, I do get to see some wonderful  sights. The storm on Sat 14th Nov 2009 was no exception.
I was on board a cross channel ferry for nine hours and took the following pictures,
