Hi Robb, Congratulations on getting on 160m. It's a fun band, even from a small city lot like mine. I ran my K2 at 5 watts to a shunt-fed 60 foot tower. Worked 51 contacts in limited part-time S&P pa

Hi John, This week on 160m has been very interesting. Some of the JA stations have been so strong around 5am (Denver time) that they were easily copied on my bedside R-75 with just an 8-foot wire ver

Nine (9) is in fact an odd number. But those wires are not actually radials. The WWV antennas are half-wave verticals, that is dipoles, not monopoles. The bottom half of each antenna is constructed t
