Hi Tim et al.

That is right--it's a simple and effective antenna.  But how in
the heck do you make one work without getting RF into
everything.  I used a tuner and 80 meter antenna for years,
working lots of dx, but with the advent of computers, I had so
much RFI I had to go to coaxial antennas.  And I still have RFI
problems in the shack.  73

C'mon,

Careful now.  The Admiral used to tell us swabs about something
he called "V.E.C.T.O.R."  --  just hope that his team doesn't use
this weapon against you.
