Anyone have any thoughts on a wire antenna for 80 & 160 meters that will
fit on a small city lot.  When I was running an Alinco DX70T/H the tuner
that worked with it would tune up 60' of wire on all bands 10-160 and I
have worked stations on 160.  The new rig has a built in tuner, but
doesn't like the 60' wire at the 80-160 meters.  I've also tried a
manual tuner, but doesn't work very well on the 60' wire.  I do have a
number of trees on the lot.
