Well the snow is finally starting to fly here in Wisconsin so it is time to
put up a 160 antenna.I have used an inteverted v here for years with the
apex at 70 feet and the ends at maybe 30 feet,pretty poor.......I would like
to try an inverted L.It is my understanding that they need a cap. to tune
them into the freq that you want.I have an 80,70 and 2 60 foot towers to use
as supports,and lots of room for radials.Are L's directional?What would be a
good starting point in length for say 1.85 mhz.Are they broadbanded?Any
ideas????    Gregg K9KL
