Different people have differing views on the definition of a serious antenna. An 8 circle with 8 directions of BSEF verticals would definitely be serious. If you wanted one tower and didnt want to do

I have no idea how any of this FT stuff works and dont really want to know but I am very interested to know how the ARRL knows whether someone is sleeping or awake. Stan, K5GO Sent from my iPhone ___

I tried that when I held the call ZF2ET and on that particular suffix i think it might have been a good thing. I went back and forth on doing it or not but always paused slightly when sending by hand

Björn, I would like to see your picture if you could send it to me. You are always strong on 160 and now we know why. For the verticals I have put up on a temporary basis very close to the water, I a

Kenny, Its not easy and in fact I havent done it for anything lower than 40m. It would be very interesting to compare something at the waters edge to what I have now. The shoreline runs SW-NE - I thi

Thanks, Dan! I have absolutely no concern about what I am achieving from about 240 degrees CW to about 25 degrees. I dont think it gets much better for a single element. In terms of wavelength my 160

Ignacy, Is your thought that you are a few dB weaker based on sone kind of A-B test of the two antenna setups or just that you feel weaker? 73Stan, K5GO Sent from my iPhone _________________ Searchab

When first married, 48 years ago, I ran a wire around the small yard at the house we rented. I dont think any part of that end fed wire was more than 15 feet off the ground and there was nothing more

In preparing to head to ZF9CW in about ten days, I wanted to take something that would allow me to do a better job on my radials under my shunt fed tower. With the thing so close to salt water the de

In 1980 based on advice from a friend who had done a lot of government antenna work for WWV, VOA (I think), I put up 192 feet of Rohn 25G (!) solely dedicated to 160 Meters and had 9 radials (3 from
