Gang.

I don't recall the W7YRV system but I do recall the Sterba curtain at W2KW at 
radio hill.  Was always s9+++++. Colvin was a big array before he went on hos 
dxpeditions and his array was written up in CQ in about 1957 when I was first 
licensed.

During support for Hurricane Camille I operated the RACES station W5IZS in 
Jackson, MS set up at the navy reserve and the antenna was a sterba. A ham in 
Portland, OR reported I was 20 over there on 75. The Sterba did work if you had 
the room.
