I use it up there. But it is, yeah, I guess nice to be having the gramp few feet outside the back of the shack. I have maybe three or four foot of copper wire to my two six foot buried poles there. And just outside the back of my radio here. And yeah, that works pretty good. I guess, you know, when I was on the second floor I would get a little bit of a hand with and the little screw on the back of the microphone would buzz my hand. It would actually burn my hand again. RF, not a burn from it, but you know, it makes you drop the mic because all that RF is going back into the, getting back into the shack. That was just literally running a long wire straight out of the back of the tuner without any coax in that case.
