Rather than use a filter capable of handling the transmit power, surely a better solution for the K3 would be to use a separate 160m receiving antenna, via a small filter on the BNC auxiliary antenna

Folks, You dont need expensive vacuum capacitors or bread slicers/toast racks to match your 160 metre L. I use a low pass L-network consisting of 0.95 microhenrys in series and 1600 pF in parallel wi

Just to say that I wholeheartedly endorse Rogers comments on repeat 160 metre contacts. We are not all certificate hunters and many are only too happy to rag-chew. In 58 years on top band, I have no

Gary KA1J, It struck me that maybe you originally cut your sloper a little longer so you could match it with a simple capacitor. My inverted L is resonant on its own, somewhere down in the 1.750 regi

Bob W7RH - you don't need expensive hard-to-find vacuum capacitors to match a quarter wave 'L' or 'T' on top band. I use cheap multilayer high voltage disc ceramics and these have been working perfec

I used to use a slightly shortened 'L' with a small inductor at the base until I was told by LA5HE that he could hear me on 80 as well as 160! Using capacitor matching forms a low pass network which

A couple of hours this morning on 160 CW yielded FR4NT, VE6WZ and ZL3IX as well as some other old friends, so considering the high static levels, conditions are pretty good! 73, Tom G3OLB ___________
