There are chances but it's small. All expeditions who are claiming to want to exploit 160 only really need to at least be QRV at their Grey lines, plus and minus 20 minutes, and anything else possibl

Why would anyone use just 43ft of vertical without at least top loading the vertical section.? Without considering maximizing the antenna efficiency, I don't think considering losses in matching coil

Fair point Guy, I'd then suggest adding a relay at the top of the vertical to add in loading wires when on 160. Easily done and could be "unseen." 73 Clive GM3POI --Original Message-- From: guyk2av@g

Hi All, I am thinking of a new Beverage that passes fairly near (50ft) of A tower that is not used on transmit as a vertical but is probably resonant in the 1.5-2.5mhz region. I would like it not add

Herb, Your best bet is to add another 50ft and make a T rather than inverted L. The L will only be of use on very local (out to 200 miles) QSOs. With a T it will remove the Horizontal and I suggest u

Jim, That is not how the hairpin should work. You should resonate your antenna at say 1.900mhz then add the hairpin across the feedpoint to bring it to resonance at your operating frequency say 1.830
