[TenTec] Argonaut VI Lost RX/TX on 160/80 Meters

[Reed]

The antenna I have Connie was made by Antennas West, which Antennas More 
bought out years ago, called a Windom TNT 135 foot off center feed.  I 
paid $89 including 97 feet of RG-8X coax with isolation choke in 1998.  
I couldn't buy the parts and build it myself for that price.  Still 
works great without a tuner except on 15 & 30 meters which the SWR is 
2.5:1. I have a beam that I use for 10/15/20 and use the TNT for 
80/40/30/17/12 meters.  Does a good job for a multi-band antenna, but 
dipole cut for the frequency is better.  I just don't have the room so 
that is why I use the TNT.

I have a Jackite 30 foot that I use a LnR Precision end feed antenna for 
10/20/40 with the Elecraft KX3.  Works very well for operation in the 
parks.  On vacation I use a AlexLoop which is very portable & does a 
good job also in reducing the man made noise you find in condos.  Only 
run PSK from condo.  Best mode for low power.
