I used an Isotron 160 meter antenna and was able to work DX up to 1,000 miles
away, but needed a different rx antenna as they have a Q which is a killer on
QRN- And while I got in the log, I was never booming in except for local
stations in and around my neighborhood- But it worked better than a dummy
load. MFJ 1026 ads and Isotron must be written by same dreamer- I tried
the 10 meter isotron and it was less then effective- But give credit where
it is due- the antenna worked- but its not a DX hound-
