Finished my inverted L, Marconi style, as the 130' of antenna is 450 ohm window 
line.  Four radials, each 130', 3 running to salt water. Fed with 150 feet RG8 
coax...no balun.  Just one side to ground, other to center conductor. Suspended 
from trees at 30'...what can I say?  It loads up just abt flat at 1to1.  Will 
be on evenings around 1810 with 5-20 watts to see if I can actually make a 
contact with my TS 930s.
