Subject: getting started
Hello I am new to reflector. and very new to top band. need suggestions as how
to get started with my limited conditions. am now using a inverted law with 30
1/4 wave radials for 160. my problem is obtaining the height. most I can get is
40 feet. I have the LAW strung between 2 trees but with sag all I can get is
40ft.I HAVE A 48FT tower which has a pushcart 2 el 40 mar yogi and 10 feet
above that is a Mosley Classic 33.I have tried to shunt feed that but so far
no luck.must be doing something wrong. I have managed to work about 60 dx
stations over the years but need to get going on Top Band.enjoyed the last SP
contest .any suggestion would be helpful
