TopBand: Balloon antennas for 160M

[Gerard Jendraszkiewicz]

Hello to all !

I am looking for information on balloon antennas on 160M. What heights
have been used, and is there a optimal height ? How much realestate does
one need, I live out in the country, nearest neighbors about 1/2 mile
away.  Is there any FAA rules to comply with ? No airports in the my
area. The antenna would be remotely tuned from the base of the wire and
a suitable ground system would be used. Any information would be greatly
appreciated.

Thanks in advance !
