After putting down 3600 yard staples to install 55 radials 130 ft for my 100
ft wire vertical with a 30 ft L I was ready for the 160 test. For RX I used an
SAL-30 which performed well at my old QTH in KH6.
The only other V3 station was V31MA who has an excellent location close to the
water with a great take off to W/K and EU, but ran LP, so it was hard to
compare on the RBN. I'm curious how the antenna performed as i finished the
radials right before the contest and really didn't have a chance to check it
out on the air. I had quite a few EU and many JAs that were there but I
couldn't copy them as they were in the mud.
Any comments on the signal/condx would be appreciated.
