I am confused, your QRZ biography indicates that you are using an inverted L
on top band. Certainly you must have realized that generally a vertical is
a better 160m antenna than a 45' high Inverted V. I have tried ~40' high
inverted V's and they work terribly, even in the Caribbean.

I'm a relative newcomer on top band. I have only 86 entities worked.
Apparently, I failed to get the message since sixty-seven of them were
worked with an inverted-vee dipole with apex at 45' and the ends barely
above head high. This was both the TX and RX antenna and TX power never
exceeded 500 W.
