Hi, I have the same complaint about the THF6A.  I have used many antennas
with it, but I am looking for something that is longer then the rubber
duck  Has anyone made the HF bands a little bit more sensative, and if so
what have you done?  Is there any atenuation on this rig at all, and how
do  you adjust it?
