9:1 Fail

I’m trying to reply to W8LLW on 14.xxx calling CQ but I can’t seem to reach him.

I tried on 25%

Then 50%

Then 100%

Nada.

This is on my 9:1 in the front trees with the transformer in the window and counterpoise/50ft coax completely inside.

I guess I should have tried the attic 9:1 since its higher and oriented differently but he’s not calling CQ anymore.

I’m thinking about replacing it with a 49:1 because I’m probably losing a lot of power which doesn’t help with my compromised install.
