The Iron We Run
Rig Showcase
From 160 to 10 meters, these are the stations that define the 20 and Over Club. Real rigs. Real power. Real signal.
100 Watts Is The Floor
The 20 and Over Club is not one frequency. It is a community of high-power HF operators spread across every band — 160, 80, 60, 40, 30, 20, 17, 15, 12, and 10 meters. Wherever we operate, the standard is the same: over 100 watts, real antennas, and a signal that moves the needle.
7.205.00 on 40 meters is our flagship frequency. 7.157 is another corner of the band we hold. Neither has ever been a QRP frequency. Neither ever will be. When you hear us, you know it — because your S-meter tells you so.
Across the bands, our members run everything from classic tube rigs to modern SDR transceivers, backed by legal-limit amplifiers and antennas that reach for the sky. This is what that looks like.

Antennas By Ultimax
Several 20 and Over Club members run Ultimax wire antennas — the Zeus and the 5K — for their multiband coverage and bulletproof construction. When you need an antenna that works from 160 to 10 meters without compromise, Ultimax delivers.
