Lately when I worked a VK on 160m, the transmit antenna antenna heard better than beverages. In other cases with the VKs, the beverages were better but not by much. I am wondering why this is the cas

I am sure you will get lots of input on this - but my experience makes me think that this is due to the angle the signals are coming in from. I often think openings near my sunrise have a higher angl

At my place the two beverages I am using, 160m to NW, 120m to NE are only good for decent signals. The real weak ones I can only copy with my vertical which is an elevated GP (top loaded tower) fed a

Interesting observations with dipoles and high angle of arrival at sunrise/sunset. But from graphs, the beverage also has a fairly high radiation angle. I am wondering whether anybody has compared be

Merv, I couldnt agree more. As Merv says....Its hard as heck to get EU to listen on the skew path. Last year when the AU was fairly quiet, the direct EU polar path prevailed, but in years past, the s

If that beverage allows you to hear and work just one extra contact in a contest and that is a multiplier you just worked hundreds of stations. Seems worthwhile to me. denny / k8do _________________
