It sounds as youre not doing enough, though.
Satellites are an answer for you.
Or get a 2M amp and a long boom antenna and do EME.

Or even better, don't spend the money.

   Bin thinkin'...Yeah I know, scary thought eh?..:-)

   The nearest 2M ssb contact I know of near me is about 300
   kilometres from my QTH so to have a Rag Chew with him I will need
   to get some ponies and some serious horsepower going cause that Ham
   unfriendly fella upstairs dropped some serious rocks on the
   landscape here and put'em in between us...:-)

   Now 2M FM, what do I use that fer?....:-(

   The trees on the property grow copper wire and real good aluminium, but it is only good on HF....:-)

   Aaaah to be so lucky

   KPA-200
   KPA-800
   KPA-1500

   Now with those I could do some serious damage.

   Maybe a dream, but, it's all I got to work with for now
