I recently put up an Inverted "L" for 160 which I'm not completely happy about
and would appreciate any helpful suggestions. The vertical portion is 40 ft.
and the horizontal part is 95 ft. It has 10 steel wire radials about 135 feet
long laying on top of volcanic soil. I can only get as high as 40 ft. Would
it help to change the steel wire to copper radials? I am feeding it with RG8
into a MFJ tuner. I have quite a bit of room on my property so could play with
other wire type of antennas but can't get up more than 40 ft. high at the
moment. Would like to get out better to Asia. Any suggestions?
Tnx and 73,
Mike NW7E
