Am I missing something? This antenna maximizes signal strength out
to 500 miles, which for K3LR "includes the high-density Amateur
population centers." But those same population centers are more than
500 miles away from my QTH so I think I'll stick with my dipole with
no reflecting wire.
Someone please correct me if I'm wrong.
CU in the SS.
