Comments:

NOT HAVING A 160M ANTENNA MAKES FOR TOUGH GOING ON THIS BAND. I USE A 40M
INVERTED V @25', AND INSERT A STATION SHIELD ISOLATING STUB IN THE FEEDLINE
LEAVING THE SHACK, SHORTING THE FEEDLINE TO THE ANTENNA, CONVERTING IT INTO A
VERTICAL T, WHICH GIVES SLIGHTLY BETTER MATCH ON 80 AND 160. I GOT MORE
RESPONSES THIS OUTING THAN PREVIOUSLY, SO I THINK CONDITIONS WERE BETTER.
THANKS TO ALL WHO PULLED ME OUT OF THE NOISE. 73, JR
