[TenTec] Sloper

[Mike Sloan]

Yes, agree about the name.  The basic concepts are well known.  Not an issue

Was going to put a flat top on it and pull it up to the vertical for even
better low angle radiation but never got around to it.

Good enough to work VK from GU on 160m CW with my early Paragon.
