Today I'm cranking down the 89' US Tower to do much needed
antenna work. Including replacement of the catenary line that once
held up the 160 InvL, which is a 4-wire cage ~80' vertical and a
single wire ~112' horizontal. ~192' for a 3/8 wave at 1.825 or so.
Series Jennings cap for resonance. 90+ Temp radials above ground.
My apologies to Ken, N4UK, for first agreeing to and then reneging on
M/S from his QTH using his extraordinary effort to get his 160m setup
operational.
I'll look over my previous logs for 160 contests and try to predict a
reasonable score to add to the club's effort. SOHP.
73 and more power to SECC
