First congratulations Alan on your commitment for a 4-square on 160. I use a 90 foot top loaded similar aluminum vertical here in Oregon. I find the use of four guy wires very convenient as it allows

Adding 5 ohms reactance to the 160 meter 4-square elements is just like tuning down frequency about 20kHz from a verticals resonance. They have about 5 ohms reactance of their own then. Adding the ar

Charlie, you did not mention what kind of an array you were planning. The answer would be very different with a simple cardioid array or 4-square as compared to a wide spaced BSEF type array. You als

Hi Neil, My first questions about problems with your reversible Beverage are: How long is the Beverage antenna? How far away and where in relationship is your TX antenna? Do you remember to terminate

Last night was a night where I got to remember why I put up all my RX antennas every year. I first had decided to look for Vlad at ER4. It was not long before he was in the log with his usual big sig

Hi Herb, I just looked at the DXE site and they say their Beverage system has isolated grounds. I would not tie the grounds together Between Beverages. It looks like you will get plenty of isolation

Hi Jim: I worked H44MY on Top-Band at 1216Z on 11-21. He was not particularily strong here in Central Or. I also noticed that he would not CQ very long before changing bands. Usually only for a few s

Hi Dave: One look at the specs for WD-1A scares me. I do not see how one could successfully send any RF down one of these wires as a differential transmission line. That is exactly what happens, and

Thanks Andrey you have confirmed my suspicions but. reception is not "injected" at feed point, so direct multiplication of attenuation by length does not play here. It seems to me that All the signal

Hi Steve: The addition of a static draining choke in a Hi impedance antenna system is in my opinion an ill advised idea. The DXE amps I believe allready use a peaking resonance utilizing an inductor

A couple of observations on matching Bobs Beverage. First I cannot figure out why some are suggesting a Balun in addition to the fine Job Bob did making the ISOLATED winding matching transformer. Unl

On occasion I hear the triple beep signals here on the low end of 160. I too believe it is a Hyperfix navigation system. Hyperfix has several modes and therefore not all systems sound alike. I believ
