Topband: New Antenna

[Peter Cook]

Folks,

I just got word that the condominium management have approved my
application for installation of a half wave dipole for 160m.

The antenna will be strung between two 20 storey tall condo blocks at a
height of 300ft in pretty clear open space (for Singapore anyway)!!

I plan to center feed with 75ohm balanced feeder to my apartment on the
10th floor and use a balun in the shack.  The main lobes should be
firing NNW and SSE.  Hope to get a few more East Coast US this season!!

Should be up in a couple of weeks,

73's
