Hi Jim, Well, yes on the 5 acres, but still suburban. But, I do notice that FT8 on the vertical 160 T often decodes as well as my DXE 4 sq receive which has directivity and thus less noise. Same comm

My plan is to add four active verticals each feeding back to my house. They will be spaced over the entire 7 acres I have here. My hope is I can pick the vertical that carries the highest noise conte
