FT1000-MP and 500' West Beverage (RX +ACY- TX)

Comments:
After spending all year getting the 10, 15, and 20M stacks up, 160M
came up short and still doesn't have any antennas.  Put up the Beverage
for SS and it did OK for TX.  Most likely destroyed the ferrites and blew
the resistors, but it was temporary anyway.  Best +ACI-DX+ACI- with it was K5NA.
I'll be back next year, having acquired 100,000 of wire to lay down for
radials.  More permanent Beverage's going up in the next month.

73...Scott K8DX
