[RTTY] Working VP6DX

[Inbody, Don]

I use that antenna also.  In fact, it is my ONLY antenna AND it is only 12 feet off the ground.  Works amazingly well loaded with either the tuner in my TS-2000 or the MFJ-993.

Forgot to mention I worked then using my 160/80/40 parallel inverted
vees. The SWR was pretty high, but propagation was good.
