Success also depends a lot on your location. Working 119 DXCC from a 70' inv vee from NY is a whole lot easier than doing it, for instance, out here in the Midwest (Iowa). YMMV. . .73. . .Dave, W0FLS

I Have an inv V hanging off of my 70 foot tower.  Because I live on a
suburb lot the legs of the antenna are bent to fit the lot (really ugly).  I
have worked DXCC (119) with that minimal antenna.  It can be done but you
have to be patient.
