This was the first contest since the new tower and C-4XL was put up. At
the last minute I decided to side mount an old TA-33 that I had in my
garage. A figured it would get more rf in the air than in the garage.
I was real pleased with the results of having two antennas to chose from
on the same band. I use a Stack Match to mix an match.
I really needed a receiving antenna on 160. Many called and couldn't
copy them. Just not enough real estate.
