Hello Fellow Topbanders,
I just finished building a switch able 1/4 wave vertical (made of
telescoping aluminum tubing) for 30 and 80 Meters (which works fine) and
want to get it working on 160.
I tried making a loading coil of 1/4 inch copper tubing but could not
get it to work.
I have the Butternut 160 Meter add on kit and used it very successfully
with a linear loaded 80 meter vertical over the past few years. Since
there is little time left before Kure, I want to go back to my 160 meter
add on kit. Now the add on kit simply won't work with the full size
1/4 wave vertical.
Can anyone help me get the add on kit to work? Is there a reason it
won't work with the full size 1/4 wave vertical? I would like to get it
up an running while Kure Island is on the air. Any suggestions would be
very much appreciated.
Thank you,
Bob/AA6VB
