Comments:
At the suggestion of W5AJ I installed a 160m antenna earlier in the week. I
attached the braid to my crankup about 8' off the ground and stretched ~130' of
wire across the yard to a pole about 10' off the ground. What is this
antenna...a half sloper? half dipole? Whatever, I'm sold!
I was amazed that I managed to work all states and some DX with this antenna.
My station log had a grand total of 230 QSO's on 160m from 1977 until before
the contest so I've more than doubled that total.
I had a great time!
Station is an Orion, Alpha 89, and whatever you call that antenna described
above.
