Comments:
This began as a part time effort but became a decent one for an old man. Antenna
is an open wire fed 80 meter antenna with the feed point shorted together and
fed against 7 new radials. Boy did those radials make a difference. I had a ball
even if I have old gear...Sherwood C-Line and no amp. If only I had radials for
the other 30+ years I have used this antenna. With no RX antenna I was limited
to what I could hear but did manage to hear KH6DX/m. I was impressed. I missed
from 04:30Z to about 09:30z the first day.
